Stuart/All, Happy New Year, and quick update. Aza wrote back. While their office is in nearby State of Washington, they manufacture and post from eastern Europe. They didn't mention any shortage in E89 wheels. It's not cheap, though. We're exchanging emails. More updates soon.Stuartt said:

Nice one marcoose
Can’t wait to see what you end up with,
Be aware, if you have heated SW
you might lose this function, I think the process kills the element, I didn’t have heated SW , might be worth asking about it if it’s a function you have. Good luck, look forward to seeing your choice

Update from Aza. They don’t do heated wheel as their base model. They need to procure one especially for this job, if they can find it, they said. It’d cost US$200 extra. Which makes me wonder about experience, warranties, etc. All TBD. Their flat bottom doesn’t look too flat to me. But it could the pics. More to come.
There I was just idly looking at forum posts and I stumbled on this one 
Now I haven't bought a Custom Controls wheel....but following your lead Pbondar, I have had Royal Steering Wheels modifiy my M-sport wheel to Flat bottom, Perforated leather on sides, Smooth top/bottom, black stitching. Cost £240 (inc vat) plus £10 carriage each way. I did it on an exchange basis for convenience - paid a £150 deposit, they sent the new wheel and I've just returned my old one for deposit return. They were great to work with and made it in just under 2 weeks. Easy fitting and swopping buttons over - took 30 minutes, plus 30 mins battery disconnect time.... thank you Dave just followed your cruise control video Beautifully made and a joy to use. I'm tall, so the flat bottom makes it so much easier getting in and out of the car and leg doesn't rub on bottom of wheel now when using clutch. Looks great and car smells pretty good too at the moment :lol: Thanks Pbondar

Thx, Mojito. Believe it or not, I’m having a hard time finding a wheel shop IN America. It’s all technically made abroad. And even the ones ‘here’, nobody is doing heated wheel. The search continues. Yours is exactly how I’d like mine. But I don’t want to lose the heated feature. Thx again.
