Msport Steering Wheel DIY for Paddles

CaliE90 · 01-19-2010, 10:40 PM

Hey guys, I have a msport steering wheel coming in this week and while I was reading the guide from bavarian19 (http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11825) that's when I realized that the steering wheel with paddles do not have access to the 2 clips that needs to be pushed in from step 2. Anyone have experience with installing a steering wheel for paddles? I'm assuming that I have to take off the trim first but I just thought I'd confirm here first.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I've installed both and both had holes to access the spring clips.

You dont have to worry, the install is identical for wheels w/ or w/o paddles. If you have any issues feel free to PM me and I'll help you out

Here's a pic of the clips:
