Then we have a 5:th steering wheel: M-sports steering wheel.
Included in the M-package.
However the thickness I?m not sure about, problably similar to Sports steering wheel.
Just for the facts

I'm thinking the order is correct, but has anyone actually compared the heated std wheel with the sports wheel in terms of thickness?

Hey, I just figured out why the white lines in the rev meter never disappear altogether!
All rev meters are the same, petrol or diesel engine.! In most brands the clocks are different.
