Just swapped my steering wheel!

Sadly the 1le package isnt available here in Sweden so i didn't get the awesome sway flat bottom wheel. Well thanks to gen5diy i do now!
Swapp was really easy, i was a little scared of the airbag but no problem there either!
Here are some pics!
Before:

After:

Looks so much better with this wheel and the recaros!

And a recaro porno shot


And because Germany and that bastard Hitler we dont get any SS stitching on the recaros... Or any badges for that mather...

Nice wheel

Too bad about your logo's and emblems:(

Do some custom headrests like LS3 426HP or Camaro or Recaro.

I was scared to but it turned out to be super easy. Just do it!
Just be sure to unplugg the battery and wait like 15 minutes before you start!

Bro you pulled off the steering wheel without the airbag blowing up on your face, you could pull out those seas too!!

Looks great by the way.

Omg!! dude, I LOVE this!! Do you mind sharing with where and how much you got those seats and steering wheel for? Also, any chance you know if those recaros weigh less than factory SS leather full power seats?

Really nice,

The new one looks miles better then the original.

I just picked up my wheel, knob and boot at the post office. Mine's from Gen5DIY, quick and trouble free delivery.

Car looks good, and you now have the SS on the wheel, if you want to see how esay it is to remove the seat, all you do is move it all the way forward, and in the back of the Chanel there are 2 bolts, remove them then lift the rear and push forward, lift and disconnect the harness and the seat is out.
