I like the look of the roundel in the steering wheel on my ti better than the M3. Do you guys agree? Or maybe I have a diff stering wheel on the ti and don't know it. Opinions and biased comments encouraged...  __________________

I think he means that fact that our steering wheel has a colored BMW roundel, rather than the plain black one that E36 M3's come equiped with. | | | | | 11-11-2005, 01:55 AM | #4 | | Member Join Date: Feb 2005 Posts: 91 |

Do you think I could switch just the 'horn cover'? and leave the wheel? __________________

Do you think I could switch just the 'horn cover'? and leave the wheel? | with the number of horn buttons avail on ebay, i would imagine you can remove/change it (but i haven't tried it). __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles

I have the airbag for that steering wheel. Not needed, since I now have the 3 spoke M-tech style wheel. Quote: | Originally Posted by Slynke Or you can do what I'm trying to do right now, which is import a wheel from the UK... | __________________
