C55 Steering Wheel


Is it possible to install this steering wheel into a normal W203?
As I can see that there is a button behind the steering wheel for changing gears. It wil be fun to have thisption to play with while driving.

Thank you,
Nico

Sure it is. How much money do you have to spend? Considering all the necessary software and hardware upgrades you will need. Then lets not for get the labor costs. Remember anything is possible. All it takes is money.

Blah, tiptronic, speedshift, all that is so boring after driving a real manual for years. I hardly ever use speedshift unless i want to initiate a downshift immediately.

Yes, you are correct. I do know the idea that manual is more fun.
But my car is auto, so that is why i want to install this option to make driving more fun.
