FS - WA - M3 Steering Wheel (TriStitch)

Hi All,

A while back I bought a manual E90 M3 TriStitch steering wheel with the intention of modifying it for my car.. Long and short of it I cant see me ever getting around to actually installing it into my car, so I may as well see if someone else can use it.

The wheel is in good condition but has two indentations and a small (1-2mm) scuff on the outer rim. In all honesty when you fit the wheel to your car, you will never notice these, but I have included photos below anyway.

The wheel cost me ~$450 from memory, but I'm open to offers as it needs to go and am happy to packup and freight (at your expense)

Cheers

That is very tempting Stu. Been trying to get a replacement out of Autoclassic for mine as the top has worn badly already but this is an alternative

Your cars relatively new... should be replaced under warranty. I had my bolsters replaced after i tore the leather off them (Im obese )

You seem to drive like me, Im a big fan of the left hand at 12o'clock and the right arm holding my door closed look.

I have no issues installing it.. I was planning on customizing it a fair bit (running lexus paddles!), but time constraints are not allowing this to happen!

Wassell - I'm happy to help you install if your keen!

Yea thats me too. they've told me to monitor it for the next couple of months to see if it gets worse and then they'll look at getting it replaced. Gonna lay it on heavy that it isnt good enough

Just found out that Autoclassic in fact aren't going to replace mine under warantee. They see it as normal wear and tear (How the f**k can a leather steering wheel in a Bimmer be buggered after 2 years??)

So what would you take for it Chris?

The next thing is, will my current trim fit on it?
