Purchased my first Z4 today (I’ve had other BMW models; e46 M3, 1 series in varying models) but always loved the look of these so took the plunge!

I’ve gone for a car with a few bits of ‘project work’ to refresh it, as I’m a sucker for spending money & ‘tinkering’. Looking firstly at replacing the steering wheel; it’s a 2007 2.0ltr & currently has a very chunky steering wheel that’s looking a bit tired. Of course I’m looking to refresh to an M Sport wheel, but just wanting to get some advise on expectations of acceptable cost to get done professionally as well as source, as I don’t trust myself with this kind of job.

Any help (& feel free to throw in any other advice or ‘watchouts’ for a new owner) much appreciated.

Hi, and welcome. Royal Steering Wheels seem to get a lot of positive reviews on this forum - do a search here for past threads and you'll see some of the refurbished steering wheels members' have had done.
 
Welcome to another BMW addict. :thumbsup:

I've had two E46 Compacts, two E86s, and E87 and an E91 - love em! :worshipbmw:

Everyone on here seems to rate Royals for steering wheel refurbs - last time I saw a price quoted it was £130.

And we like to see photos on here - it's like an unwritten rule!

Hi and welcome, if the replacement steering wheel is in good condition its a straight swap. Much like changing a car alloy wheel.

Royals route is also popular will be about £130? Plus the steering wheel and postage expenses on top.
Otherwise the M wheel is about £250-300 for a good one.
