Hey guys need your help again. This time regarding the steering wheel.
I've read several threads about the topic but still can't find a clear answer.
I just bought a Msport steering wheel from eBay and it is coming from Germany
Seller states it is before 09/05 cars like mine. This is the part #32346763373 and it comes with airbag also. I have that ugly triangular wheel right now. Is this just plug and play? I mean remove the old wheel and put the new one. Will the module except another airbag
Do I need reprogram it? Does it matter manual or auto trans for airbag?
And also I am thinking to redress this wheel and make it flat bottomed.
Do you know any reputable company that does that kind is service?
This is the wheel I bought

As long as the wheel is the correct year everythinis plug and play. There's a diy on removing the airbag just search that forum, also do a search for the rewrap. It was a topic on here awhile ago.

Sorry, I was talking about the shop in Texas. Have you tried going to M5board and looking there for the flat bottom?
I know that there are some flat bottom wheels on ebay and a few online vendors offer them, can'r remember off the top of my head but it might have been easier to order one like that.
If I find any of things I mentioned, I'll post it here for you.
