Ricky - King of Electronics and ebay, do you know what wiring kit i need?

Got my steering wheel and had it installed by AK this afternoon! Looks great BUT all that is missing now is the wiring loom so that i can use the paddle shifters

Feels much better than the standard steering wheel!!

To be honest, the diameter is not much different from the regular wheel ... its mainly the thickness of the wheel..... and obviously with paddle shifters too

Was down at AK's today and saw a fellow E60'er... He was there to install the M5 mirrors he bought from William!

Told him to join the forum if he likes modding his car!
