steering wheel question

I got 06 cls 55 and we took on trade at my dealer 07 cls63. Love that steering wheel on the 63 car. Do you guys know where to purchase that and how much it is? Also will the 2007 steering wheel fit the 2006 car. Thanks in advance

I did the search and it seems like everyone is beating around the bush and no real answer.

That is a great looking wheel. Will the paddles function on an '03 SL55?

so I got an email from my dealer and he said "Have checked out steering wheel only suits clk black series not for cls." Do you think that they must try to keep these type of parts exclusive to the model and thats why he has to write this in an email? From what i have read the airbag will fit the CLK BS wheel and the wheel and paddles will work fine??? Someone please clear this up ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have seen the clk wheel installed in another cls (.. this is the reason why i think it is not exactly its best companion.. but it's only a matter of tastes)

but i thnik no install difficulties

at worst you'll need a little wire work

I don't know if this is called the 63's version or what
I just know I wanted this Alcantara wheel with alu paddles,
I gave it to my MB Service for install and they did it without any problem as far as I know

mcma1, did you end up getting a CLK BS wheel and did it work? If so, was it pretty much plug and play or was there a lot involved in getting it work?

BTW, here is a picture of it installed on a CLS:
