Lightbulb Hey!! I NEED HELP SWAPPING MY 2016 C63S steering wheel with 2019 C63s wheel?

I have a 2016 C63s as of now. I was wondering.... Is It possible to fit the new 2019 steering wheel on the 2016-18 C63s? And just to spice things up, is It possible to add the 2019 digital dash on the 2016-18 C63s? I really want to do the steering wheel and the dash is more of a fantasy but do you think It is possible? Besides dimensions of the wheel and installation, the main problem I see is that the new steering wheel has a lot more modules and controls than the 2016-18 ones. Even though all of the functions do exist, they aren't on the wheel, especially the new touch hotkeys, including the 12 stage traction control. And of course the idea is that all of the functions on the wheel work! Oh and don't forget about the digital dash, if have any ideas on that. Please share and make this happen!!!!

With Appreciation!

Looking at both pictures closer together, honestly the dash should be able too. It looks like It could be the same housing or at least its the same dimensions of the dash board on both cars.

There’s nothing you can’t do.. the thing is:
It will probably be easier AND cheaper to just buy the new car. Between parts and labor you will most likely be close to what the new cars are being sold for. Also, when you are going to sell your modded 16 no one will pay a penny more just because you have the new steering wheel / screen

You can use the ‘19 wheel to steer your car, but you’re not going to be able to get the ‘19 wheel to function with your old software since the coding is completely different with all the new tweeks and settings. Looking at both, I like the pre facelift steering wheels better anyways.

Zero chance the electronics (specifically the new OLED dials) work. Waste of time and money if that's what you're expecting.

It's totally possible, Chinese Taobao already have these steering wheels on sale, as for the center screen and instrument cluster, there's are some shops that perform retrofits such as mbhouse, as long as there are crashed 2019 C63S, they can always get the parts for retrofit the old models.



Retrofit a steering wheel costs around 6K Canadian dollars
