Hello, so I want to upgrade my 2018 steering(1st picture) wheel to the new ones which I’m going to attach below(either of two) does it need programming & coding or is it plug & play? Also where can I get OEM with good price, if anyone knows please send and thank you. Also which steering wheel do you all prefer from these?

I really appreciate it, but I was asking something else. I want an OEM, and asked if it requires programming or coding. If anyone knows, please inform me, thanks!

yes it requires programming but not via star or any other diagnostic tool. you need an adaptor in the wheel itself
you can buy a used wheel but then you will need to find someone who can provide you with the adaptor itself. depending on the options in your car it can range from $300+

Mercedes E Class E300 Cabriolet
I came across this tutorial on YouTube, it’s in Russian but looks easy enough to follow.


By the looks of it, the top row of buttons on the steering wheel work ok but the bottom (I assume is cruise select) needs some sort of module or coding.

worth a watch if it’s any help

if anyone needs something translated I can do that.
as for the module; thats a module I use, have all the different programs for it
cruise control on the steering wheel wont work on anything older than 2019 (late model)
