Hi all,

I have a 840i Gran Coupe from 2020, with the OEM steering wheel which has heated steering + active lane keep (with the led lights on both the right and left side of the steering wheel)

My steering wheel is kinda worn out, and I saw a listening for a brand new g80 M3 steering wheel near me. It has the same button layout, with heated steering as well. Obviously it has the m1/m2 buttons too.

I’m conscious that the m1/m2 buttons won’t be functional, but other than that, can I buy it and fit it into my car, and retain all my normal features?

Thank you !

There may be some coding required if it’s a different part number, but also the plugs may also be different with the additional M1/M2 buttons - someone may know better than me.

Why not just get it re-trimmed? That’s my plan - my wheel is fine, I just want the tri-colour stitching put in it, and perhaps perforated leather on the sides.

Thanks! I’m hoping that’s not the case…
As to why I’m not getting it re trimmed, the retrimmers say the heating function will be destroyed if they try

Are you UK based? I’ve got a quote from Royal steering wheels and they can do it no problem.

Heating function lost if re-trimmed? First time I hear this… I would definitely not use them
