Have been thinking about it yeah but the OEM ones are way too much -- and a friend of mine got his stolen off his E60 parked near the Tapei 101.. hehehe... So yeah, if there are some high quality reps, I might think about it.
Come to think of it, on Taiwan's 'ebay', I see quite a few M-Tech fronts for sale (with no hardware) and seem to have been taken off in a hurry.... I wonder if I get an M-Tech, it might happen to me as well..... I might come out of my office to find it missing a front....

Also, i also want to swap my steering wheels too... but that airbag cost like 10k ... def doesnt worth at all. i found the same oem parts in US for like 600USD. which is 4800 HKD only.. so i might give it a try...

You can get all fitted at BMW within 10K (Incl airbag)
Or
You can always search on Ebay for a bargian, but make sure you are getting the right stuff for you car
e.g pre 05 and post 05 Mtec wheel are different
