Yep, most of us consider that to be a huge downgrade.

Why is it a downgrade? That's the only part of the interior (looks) that I think the M5 outdoes the E63
I would want it but not worth $800 to me is the only reason I will pass.

Nowhere near as good looking as the PFL, feels too thick in the wrong places, and the buttons blow.

Ohh you are talking about the whole steering wheel. I am referring to the center leather-bound airbag for sale here

Thanks for your input guys. These just don't exist, when they do, they are $900 on eBay. I am asking less, and have it here in the states already (they come from Europe). I am more than fine to wait for the right buyer at the right price.

From someone who has owned a plethora of pre-facelift and facelift W213 AMG steering wheels, I can confirm that it is much better in person. Sometimes it just takes us all a little bit of time to adjust to a new design!

Still avail if any of you facelift guys are interested. This will also fit the new R232 SL AMG models as those are also sold with plastic airbags.

Amazing mod. I was thinking to snag one off an S class but this is way easier. Can you take the cover leather off or do you have to install the whole airbag?

Agreed that the plastic air bag cover is pathetic. Such an insane machine and they throw a $15 plastic cover. SMH.

You have to be careful because the S class airbag from a non sport wheel is different. You also should install the entire airbag versus swapping covers. The airbag is yours if you want it, let me know.
