F97 wheel on g05- Will it work ? (Thread)
Back story -
Had g02 with standard sport wheel. The plan was to just buy an msport air bag and throw on this wheel. Wild December Christmas bonus and good numbers from the dealer and I ended up with an msport x5. The plus- don't need to buy an airbag. Now I need to figure out how to swap out the trim and buttons. This should be doable. But definitely not plug and play anymore since my new car has the different driving assist options |

Straight forward swap.
Internals are the same, just multifunction button and trim are different. Oh, you'll need to move the top cover and M1/M2 button over too if you want to keep them there.

Yes the buttons will likely be for show. Someone posted in the X3 that they found some settings on BimmerCode but I'm not holding my breath. Initially I was going from a standard sport wheel on an x4 and wanted the thicker "m" wheel. I loved the tri stitching and this wheel was local. So I pulled the trigger. |

You had to bring up my PTSD again with the fiasco many of us endured with the lack of m sport wheel on our first year X3 M40i!!

Ended up with this.
Sigh 😔. Might have to swap back and take it to dealer. Not sure what I broke. r33_RGSport What do you think I broke ? I also found out that my coding laptop is toast. ..... |

If it doesn't, you'll need to use ISTA.
