hmmm i can ask. it wasnt too expensive... the only problem is that you need to give them your steering wheel and it takes a while... so then youre stuck with no steering wheel for a few weeks... thats why i havent done it yet.... but you could either just use a replacement wheel for a while or get one from a junkyard.

I bought the wheel off a local tuning firm for 485 Euro shipped.. The steering wheel is an Original MB wood wheel for W203, MB list price is 785 Euro.. so i think its quite a fairly good price.

I wish i could get the Brabus wheel.. but there's no way that i can get it around this price and plus i dont really want to spend so much money just on a steering wheel.

There are at least 3 forum members who did the same upgrade (@ 425USD shipped) before you...so...nope - not the first.

HI, if you are interested in a steering wheel like that, WE can do it for you for 450. this requires core exchange so we will need your steering wheel. ofcourse it will cost more if you want us to use a brand new steering wheel for the conversion.

i will post pics later on tonite with what ours looks like. it looks like a cross between that one above and the brabus one.

we can make it in wood or carbon fiber or alcantra.
