You can put the M5 SMG paddles on both the 3 spoke sport wheel and the 3 spoke M-Sport/M5 wheel with the thumb rests
Here are some wheels can fit M5 SMG Paddles on:
1. Any steering wheel on E60 with SMG option
2. M5 steering wheel

3 spoke M-Sport wheel w/o SMG option cannot be fitted with M5 or regular SMG paddles because there is no slot for SMG paddles to tug in.

Steering wheel with SMG option is more expensive than the one without.


==========

I can go down to central and southern CA to install the kit if there are more than 4 people who are interested, and I charge only one hour of labor for installing steering wheel, paddle, airbag and my kit.

Do you think this will fit on a RHD E60 ? Please advice. Thanks.

Yes, they can be fitted on the RHD side becuase the guys in Europe who already have it fitted by Hobi are mostly RHD.

2. M5 steering wheel

3 spoke M-Sport wheel w/o SMG option cannot be fitted with M5 or regular SMG paddles because there is no slot for SMG paddles to tug in.

4.any aftermarket wheels (if you check they have the cut outs make a search for MP design, they do all of them from Hartge to ACS and Hamann).

Steering wheel with SMG option is more expensive than the one without.

Hi Roger,

Do you think this will fit on a RHD E60 ?
This will fit either RHD or LHD. There is no difference.



I have a 530i steptronic (July 2004) and would like to now price and kind of payment for these things:

-M5 steering wheel,complete,with airbag.
-M5 Paddles
-Your kit.

Sorry but my english is so bad

I?m writing from Spain,any problem?
M5 steering wheel ~$850 (new)
Airbag ~$650 (new)
Paddles ~$200 each
My kit with video instruction showing step by step to install my kit to completion of the project: I sent you a PM
You can buy M5 steering wheel set with Paddles on the eBay for about $500. It's on www.ebay.de once in a while. This way is much cheaper. I don't sell M5 steering wheel, airbag, and paddles at all.

It still is steptronic, just changing from a different location
The selling point is shifting up/down during turn with both hands on steering wheel. This will enhance your confidence during the turn and through the curvy road.
