It's no problem so long as the airbags are the same.

PM me if you are selling the C55 wheel ..... I hope this SLK wheel also has the same type of gear shift buttons. You had better test it first since there have been reports of variations between years and electronics.

apparently one wheel has a different look and feel as it is alcantra + leather. But the electronics can vary randomly.
