Installing this 2012 Steering wheel and airbag into my 2008
Hello,
I am planning on purchasing his steering wheel for my 2008 C300
https://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-MERCED...IAAOSw4A5Y0W7y
But before I pull the trigger and buy it, I wanted to make sure I am not missing any information.
This is a direct bolt-in for a 2008 model, right?

Wow that a steal for all 3 items, air bags alone go for more then that, jump on it, it wil all fit, I dont think you'l need the clock spring, when people put w205 steering wheels they need the clock spring, not in this case because its a w204, best of luck.

Installed the steering wheel
The reason the price was low is because it has some wear marks on the silver paint and on the buttons
The install was nerve-racking, I had to take a breaker bar to the steering wheel nut.. and with the amount of force I was applying I was worried about breaking the steering column / lock
The buttons on the FL steering wheel do not illuminate (as expected)
The FL steering wheel feels much better in hands because of its smaller size
But quality wise, I would say the pre-FL three spoke wheel is of better quality, more durable, and much easier to keep clean
This is what it looks like

But none of them light up.
I believe a bit more work is needed for the buttons to light up. I just straight-up swapped the steering wheel/air bag.
