New Emblems, 82 Front, 82 Rear, Color:Anthracite

https://rigakit.com/en-us/products/b...43092072857855

These are absolutely beatutiful, nicely made, you get exactly what you paid for.

Rear Fit perfectly into the grommets, nice and snug, I still used a few pieces of mounting tape, extra insurance.

Front, was a snug fit into the open holes, as the pins are spaced for the old pin spacing, too narrow. The new pin spacing for the front is 60mm. You can't retro fit grommets to hold these on, you will need 3m exterior attachment tape to mount the front.

The factory emblems all glued all the way around, heat helps to remove, definitely tape around them, you'll need to pry to remove.

The new wheel is in, very happy with the results.

A bit crowded to get everything installed, but you can see the fitment below. The heated function works great. No issues. Items to note, the top cover didn't appear to fit well dry ftting as the leather was thicker than OEM and left a gap, along the back and sides. Once it was screwed in, it fit fine. Also the 6 threaded holes, not sure if they didn't thread deep enough or used a locking thread, but work the screws in before installing the parts, to ensure the screw is actually bottoming out on the component and not feeling like it is tight, but not actually deep enough. I had to go back in to tighten the vibration module, as it ended being loose and rattling. Ensure you follow the OEM torque, way more than I would have installed it.

The M Buttons also included the seat back feature when you get out and the windows close.

T60 Torx Bolt 07149890645 - Has thread locker installed, they recommend it be replaced, as the thread locker comes off on removal.

Grease 83192286016

I also also bought the M3 top Cover 32309503189, the one included on the kit was basically identical.

Infinite Autowerks M Buttons, Upgraded to the OEM Buttons

Ebay Steering Wheel - I had alot of communication with the seller, they were excellent. You can basically customize it to what you want. They had me use this link to purchase as it was heated and this was the price. I used this note on the order comments, if you want to exact same wheel. I would contact the seller anyway to ensure it goes smoothly. I informed them the G42 was the same as the G20.

When you place an order leave a custom note on the order.
-Up and down smooth leather & Side perforated leather
-6mm blue smooth leather
-M stitching
-Round shape
-With heated
-With paddles cutouts

It completes really nicely your interior! Congrats!

Are the M1 and M2 button functional? If so, you coded them, didn't you?

They are functional, you plug in a module, no coding. The function is not the same as the OEM. You can cycle through the driving modes. I have to cycle through again when you restart the car. You can't program them for a specific driving mode. When you cycle through it ends up with my prefered combo, M1 Sport, M2 Comfort
