Great DIY Can anyone confirm the torque specs for 16mm steering wheel bolt? I've read 75 ft/lbs in this thread and 46 ft/lbs in a thread on E90post. Thanks.

Problem installing my PW with the Paddle Shifters
Hi, I bought in USA my PW and when i just tried to install it in Lima Peru i realized that the dealer in Miami, did not give me the Coil Spring Cartridge, but that problem is being solved just by asking one to be shipped here to Peru, I think the code for my car is 61 31 9 122 381.
But the other real problem is that my automatic 335 VIN WBAWB73578P043691 comes with the Paddle Shifters in the original wheel and my Performance Wheel doesnt come with the holes for them. I would try to make the holles myself because i want to have both the PW and the Shifters. I have studied both Of the wheels and it seems that i only need two holes to make, do you think it would work? |

Anyone know if you can get the installation kit separate from the steering wheel? If so, does anyone have part numbers?

This DIY helped me out a lot, I just installed my M performance wheel (non-elec), and it only took about 20 min.

i just changed my steering wheel to the newer PSW non-electric one
i followed this DIY, which was great, but this part was not shown well in the pictures, and it was the hardest part so i took some pics what you are trying to do is to press these 2 metal bars in, to release the airbag. one on each side right side left side front showing where you need to insert the screw driver (shown with 2 screwdrivers just to highlight, you can do one at a time) and this is what the hole looks like from the back to me it's always easier to do something if i can visualize it, so i hope this helps you guys

Thanks to OP and kmarei's images above I also installed the PSW non-elec V2 just moments ago.
I agree with former installers that airbag remove is the hardest of all so I want to also contribute some pictures to make future PSW DIY easier The insertion point is on the black rubber part at the back of the steering wheel, I circled it with red They are really tricky, I don't know if anyone can visualize the insert slit with bare eyes...I can't. When you don't put it in, it is not there, but your screwdriver can certainly go in without any extra force. Like some members said, use your finger tip to feel the slit and insertion point. Using your new PSW to practice attacking the metal clip greatly benefits also, just like Leonardo629 suggests Other than that, non-elec PSW is not very hard to install at all, you got to skip all the harness/wires work. But try not to close the truck after disconnecting the battery, otherwise you would ended up like me crawling into the back seat and ripped the arm rest off and managed to pull the emergency trunk release... Cheers |

I love my PSW as well, the blue ring is a bonus, if only the electronic one has it I will absolutely jump on that, but doing that DIY is another story...haha |

Thank You Kmarei Big time....
As you indicated the most difficult part of this mod is to remove the airbag which OP doesn't get into too much. Thank you for posting your update.
It took me 20 mins total for the install..... People with silver int should really consider this mod as the blue on the steering wheel goes very well with the interior color!

Sorry to jack thread but how hard is it to install this wheel? Do you have to mess with any electrical stuff like the bmw performance electric wheel? I got the same wheel as you.

I solved my problem. Got Bavarian Technic cable and erased the code. If you face the same problem and decide to go the same route, be sure to turn on hazard flashers, otherwise cable wont communicate!
