wait...direct me to what i need.
So i have a steptronic with the M sport wheel and what do i need more besides that kit?

You need M5 steering wheel and paddles and my kit.
You can reuse your airbag, ECU in the steering wheel, and multifunction buttons on both sides.

I thought that you needed the M wheel and not the M-Sport wheel??

Because the noemal M wheel does not have the slits??

You're right. If you have the set up as shown in the pic, you only need my kit.

Hi Guys,

I'd like to announce that this kit is now available for you to order. My kit is very easy to install. You don't need to know much about electronic. No Digital Multi Meter is needed. All you need to install this kit is torx 10, 20, small flat screw driver, phillip-head screw driver, and 15mm socket with extension. If you have any question, please PM me. I'm in Bay Area, so if you want me to install it for you, please let me know.
I have an extra pair of M5 paddle and steering wheel, too.

You can buy it here:

or PM me.

Best Regards
Will it work with a U.S. version 550i?

If you have M5 wheel with paddle, my mod would be $330. Because I promised that I'd give E60.net member $30 discount, the kit will cost $300+shipping. This mod will compatible to 530D as long as you have step.

Best Regards
