There's an auto mechanic shop in city of Walnut called "M.B. Stars" that can pretty much do everything. I got my wood steering wheels and shift knob installed there for $40

No problem, I know performance product has some special going on now....either 10% off or free shipping, not sure. I will post the promotional code if I find the postcard that they sent me couple days ago

But wood steering wheel is a great addition!

Thanks. My interior leather is ash and I have yet to find an ash/black birdseye maple wood steering wheel to match my interior.

I got my Schaetz Avantgarde shift knob from www.formymercedes.com and I have to say, it matches perfectly!

You may also try MBZ Motors in Winnetka to have your your steering wheel installed. Call Tony at (818) 709-5400 and tell him that Jimmy the Greek sent you.
