Default M3 steering wheel in ti...

I'm waiting on a couple of parts to come from Turner for the ti before I install it, but I did pick up a M3 4-spoke wheel for the ti.

I know that several people have done this swap, so I wanted to ask if there was anything out of the ordinary I would need to make this plug and play...

Any suggestions are welcome... TIA!

I do not know what year M3 the wheel came from, but it is in perfect condition and was extremely reasonable, so I bought it. I really like that the M3 one is slightly thicker, giving a nice, solid feel to it.

Here are some pics...




Here is a close up of the connector...

should plug right in but your going to have to have the holder for all the stalks and the horn slider button part that presses onto the bronze circle from the column, then just splice into the brown/same color wire as the new button.

different airbag, but heres a little motivation

no problem, always happy to help a fellow ti'er haha
also, i found this a while back, didnt really help much as their doing the opposite of what we did, they put a late style on a early car, were going late car to early wheel, but here it is.
