Confirming that you'll need to order 4HB.

If it's anything like earlier platforms, all of the wiring and hardware should already exist in the steering column. You need to source yourself an OEM Heated wheel - once you do that, go to any reputable indy shop and tell them you need the wheel swapped, all buttons/trim go off the old and onto the new, and plug in the connector for heating.
The heating button is part of the wheel, my economies-of-scale experience tells me that the harness/loom and associated fuse/relay should all be there just waiting for the right wheel. You may need coding, but I'd doubt that's even a necessity.

Has anyone had any luck with this?
I ordered our X5 without that package thinking that the heated steering wheel would be standard, or at least part of the executive package. Needless to say, I was baffled once I got the car... Asked the dealer if they could retrofit and they said no. Curious to see if anyone has been successful.

Hopefully you can get heated steering wheel added for a reasonable price. Not to rub it in, but it's awesome |

Just to add my two cents, I ordered the steering wheel heating and use it regularly now...One interesting point though, it comes with not only the center console heated like it's shown on some websites (x6 g06) but also with the heated door armrests.
Funny thing about it, when you activate the seat heaters (or they are automatically turned on below the set temperature), the armsrests turn on as well, but not the steering. You need to press the button on it to get it going. On the other hand, if you only turn on the steering wheel heating only, armrests stay cool. So even though they come in a package with the steering, they are more functionally related to the seats. |

BMW stupid packages, to me this is simply no longer a premium brand, I was looking into the same for our current order, why can we simply pay for what we need when ordering our 2017 X5, the grey shaded windscreens band option, for the last 20 years use to be at around 150 Euros, of course BMW felt it need to package this with the Climate windscreen at 400 Euros, not that we need this windscreen for the mild climate in Ireland, so ticked the box knowing we paying more than double, but the best part the car was delivered with the climate stupid windscreen and guess what the shaded top windscreen band missing.
To me premium means large selection detailed options, Packages are simply volume! Sound they bring this to the ever shrinking list of color options. Last edited by martin mustang; 02-14-2020 at 04:07 AM.. |

You choose engine, trim (base, xLine or mSport) and everything else is individual options. |

Heated: Front seats - armrests and steering wheel. If you already have heated seats in another package it will delete that and replace it with 4HB (or make 4HB 435 euro cheaper) |
