So after finally having some time I finished retrofitting the M6 steering wheel (which I will NEVER EVER do again!). But in the end it was worth it... looks nice

Yeah I always loved the illuminated + and - too. If I get tired of it, i can always switch to push/pull

nice upgrade ! how hard to upgrade a 6 with smg to the m6, i think the shift sequence is different, 645 smg pull either paddel in to shift up/push with thumb''in'' to downshift. and the m is left side down right side up?

Hmm good question. shouldn't be too hard actually. Come to think of it. Going from push/pull to +/- is easier than +/- to push/pull if you alrady have SMG.

EDIT: Ok I got it figured out already lol hit me up if you wanna do it.

Hey Roger. Why doesn't your steering wheel have the ///M logo? Isn't it an M6 steering wheel? I actually prefer how you have it - not an M, shouldn't have M badging.

I had the sports steering wheel before and the trim is a direct replacement. I didn't have to buy any additional parts besided the bare bone steering wheel and paddles. Everything else transferred over from my old steering wheel I guess you can buy the ///M trim piece with the logo but i didn't want to do that.
