    OEM Sport Steering Wheel

    Installed this bad boy the other day. Took it off a Sport C280. It feels SO much better than the stock steering wheel, smaller to.

    Make sure the battery is disconnected for this operation, and turn on the lights to drown out any remaining power in the capacitors. Thats what I did.

    Nice. I'm still on the backburner with updating my C43's sport wheel to the multifunction wheel from the w210 or w208. Would require a new cluster AND comand 2.0. But talk about a huge, huge interior update--using stock parts!

    I like Sulaco's idea. But that costs money ...

    It wasnt hard, but you need 70 pounds of torque to take out the bolt that holds the wheel down. That wasnt fun. Actually broke the Allen wrench on my friends C280 :T

    Awesome. I never did like the way they looked compared to the standard for some reason.
