DIY: Heated Steering Wheel Retrofit to E90 M3
First of all, thanks to the great community. This project couldn't be done without the information I got from the forum. So I documented the work and share it in the form of YouTube video, hoping to help someone who is also interested in this retrofit.
You can start from Ep. 4 where 1-3 serves as background information and preparation. Enjoy! Background info:
Required parts:
Video documentary:

There's a temperature sensor in the steering wheel that adjusts the heat level. So, as you use it, you'll notice that the steering wheel is hotter when it's cold inside your car, and it cools down as the interior temperature increases. I found this out from using it. I initially thought that it was on full blast, or off completely using the switch. I was pleased to find out it auto-adjusts the heating.
I can tell you, having had mine for the past 2 winters, now, that it gets quite hot, when it's really cold out. It does take some time to fully heat up, though. Cheers! |

Hi Clammy Thank you for the feedback! The area I am in does not have subzero temperature so I really don't have the chance to see it's full performance.
I believe you are right! I will update the writing Quote:
