No the wheel cover is purchased separately.

Chesmu · 08-05-2006, 11:24 PM

on e-bay as well? i've never seen it sold anywhere.

ZuerstBMW · 08-05-2006, 11:27 PM

I bought mine from Morristown BMW for 30.00

Chesmu · 08-05-2006, 11:29 PM

morristown has everything... i just got my blackline tail lights from them for 180.00 shipped.

ZuerstBMW · 08-05-2006, 11:31 PM

The best prices and the fastest shipping.

I've searched but can't find it. What part number did you use for just the M-Tech Steering Wheel cover? I thought the part number was: 32307906847, but it's shows up ast $84 from Morristownbmw so I think this part number might also include the multifunction switch. If anyone knows the part number for just the steering wheel cover with the M badge, I'd appreciate a response.

I ordered the wheel from the guy on ebay and would love to get the cover ordered ASAP. Thanks!

ZuerstBMW · 08-07-2006, 07:32 PM

Sorry, it was 80.00 not 30.00, so that is probably the right part number.

I just installed by Msport Steering Wheel thanks to these great DIY instructions! Vroooom!!!!

bmwexecutive · 08-12-2006, 02:40 PM

I was considering getting both this Msport Steering Wheel and M5 wheels for my 330i, but I figured that I'm going to wait to enjoy such things in my new V8 M3 in about a year.

Is it possible to put M5 steering on 3 series? I don't think it can.. I know E90 share the steering with the 1ers though.
But yeah, definitely can't wait for the M3.. Just wish I can afford it..

2323 · 09-02-2006, 05:20 AM

Yeah, very helpful DIY indeed Bavarian.. I just did the conversion too.. Will post the pic when I gotta chance... Did you miss the step for the horn connectors? I did a conversion from the non-sport steering so I have to figure out where the connectors go. But it's pretty easy enough to figure from the pics..
Thanks to you..

He said M5 wheels, not steering wheel.

I don't quite get the above instruction.. Is it really necessary?

what light? the headlight? clarification needed.

Any one can confirm this step is necessary?

tman · 11-19-2006, 04:45 PM

I can't confirm it other than the fact that I put my lights on when I reconnected the battery and all is fine. Since I worked on the wheel twice, I've done it twice and all is ok.

mtndog · 11-20-2006, 10:05 PM

Great instructions...I just completed the install on my 335. Five more mod's to go. Thanks Bavarian.
