Steering Wheel Options on an 02 clk55 AMG
How about we go one step further. I want to "ideally" take a steering wheel from a newer sl or cls One that has the 135degree angle or squared look on the bottom instead of being rounded all the way. One with the paddle shifters or the buttons and take that and modify it to fit the W208 clk 55 amg. This is a project I have on the list somewhere as we all know when there is a will there is a way and hopefully someone is on the same page as me with this idea.
Also while on the topic of steering wheels. I really don't understand why the 02clk55 Only has the steering wheel that is telescopic instead of 4 way. Considering its manual and not electronic anyone think its possible to swap the assembly from a 02 c230k w/ the manual 4 way?
and it goes on in on....
I am also looking to start a club in the denver metro area for w208's if not all mercs so if anyone is interested PM me

CLK W208
It's not a simple job, the connecting hub bore is smaller on the newer steering wheels than the CLKs. I have found a way but not sure if its doable. I'm working on retrofitting a 2013 C63 steering wheel into my W208. I will keep everyone updated once I get some results.

There is a guy on here that was advertising and he has some pretty nice steering wheel and he does all custom stuff. I think its dctm.com
