charcoal/black birdseye steering wheel

We have ONE (new) ergonomical shaped charcoal leather/black birdsey maple steering wheel in stock (manufactured by one of the supliers of AMG) and offer this steering wheel for 875USD shipped per IP post...

Mail us at s_krabbenborg@hotmail.com when interested.



The holes for the shifterbuttons are present in this steering wheel and you will have to take these buttons and wiring out of your current steering wheel to fit them into this one (which is not that hard).

We also have ONE such steering wheel that comes directly from AMG (which took over 4 months to get delivered so the original "buyer" already lost interest in this steering wheel a long time ago - which is understandeable)...this wheel comes with shifterbuttons which are compatible with the newer E55s - 2005 & 2006 models or have to be swapped out for the older E55s (as the electronics for thse buttons differ).



However - as AMG has sourced the manufacturing of these steering wheels out to cheaper labour countries, this steering wheel comes with a small woodchip at the bottomside of the steering wheel...and somehow the AMG Manufaktur after-sales service is even worse then the before-sales service and it doesn't look like AMG is willing to swap this steering wheel out (which at least saves me a 4 months waiting period)...



This AMG manufactur steering wheel is offered for 1425USD incl. shipping per IP post.

greetingz,
