Anyone knows if a E55/CLK55 steering wheel can fit on a C32?

I always wonder if the steering wheel on the C32 is the same as the one on C320/240 because it doesnt have the AMG logo on it. I was by the advisor that the C32 steering wheel is a little bit thicker than the regular C. But I really like the one from E55/CLK55 as it is much thicker and has a "nudge" at the 10pm and 2pm area. Anyone knows if I can put a E55 steering wheel on a C32? Btw, E55 and CLK55 share the same steering wheel. Any info is much apreciated. Thanks!!

I don't imagine the steering wheel buttons of the C32 would map to anything on the replacement wheel... the primary reason why I wouldn't give it any further thought.

i have no idea it you can put a E55/CLK55 steering wheel on the C32. i want to change it too but one thing is that the C32 steering wheel DO have the "nudge" at 10 and 2 o'clock because it is still wrapped by AMG. the only thing sucks is that it doesn't have the AMG logo.

You must be kidding. My steering wheel DOES NOT have the nudge at the 10 and 2 o'clock!!!!! Is it possible for you to post a pic of yr steering wheel? Or e-mail me? If your steering wheel is different from mine, I need to have a serious talk to my dealer!!! Thanks!!

The "nudge" is very slight. If you look at the steering wheel at the right angle, it almost looks like the wheel at 10 and 2 o'clock does not curve anymore, it just goes straight for a bit and then continues to curve. Keep in mind this is very slight. I do not know why you want to switch, I find the steering wheel more than adequate.

hey justin:

how do you know what i was gonna say
except the i do want to chage the steering wheel. not to the E55/CLK55's but hope AMG will have a two tone steering wheel for the current steering wheel in my C32.

BTW nice color choice...i have almost the same but Obsidian BLK

Thanks. Merlot is not what I would have chosen by examining the options sheet, but once I saw it in person, I loved it. Now the only trouble is hiding the swirl marks the car came with.

thats why i got mine in obsidian black instead of the true black
the obsidian black is a metallic paint. easier to hid the swirl marks
