Flat bottom steering wheel

My white top and white stitched steering wheel is worn and to a point i can't clean it. When it was new it looked and felt great.

But why not one of these? I haven't seen too many of these on our CLK's?

Hey Gizzo,

I too wanted that style wheel!

You'll find that that particular steering wheel won't fit our model. It's all down to the drivers air-bag!

If you can get a steering wheel to accomodate the W208 air-bag that's the way to go as later bags are not compatable.

Wondering if it's the same diameter as the OE. I was thinking about looking for a smaller more sporty steering wheel.

Yeah,

I too am looking for something slightly smaller.

I have the perforated leather sports wheel with molded grips and chunky width, feels great to hold, but a little on the large side.


Ash,

Let us know what you've got soon!
