Don’t think I’ve ever seen someone do it, not even sure if it will work…

Personally, steering wheels like these don’t fit the time in which the E85/6 was built. As such, they look deeply out of place given their highly digital nature in what is a very analogue car.

Select the +$600 option to add LED's.

I'm going to agree with Barty, I prefer the simple stock steering wheel but hey - to each their own. You'll get no hate from me. You do you!

Yup, I've done this! The LED bit is quite a bit more expensive than I paid, I think they're around the £250.
I did a "I'm happy with it" DIY job - it's not perfect, but I love it :)

Tried to find a few pics of mine....
