Oh man is this a SWEET steering wheel! WHY cant they make these in a heated version? I have TONS of CF under my hood, on the car and IN the car which takes temps from Freezing cold to burning hot and yet they don't include that option on CF steering wheels.

Sweet wheel for someone in warmer climates or doesn't mind losing heated wheel. Good luck with the sale, someone will get a sweet mod here.

Its not that the carbon cant handle the heat... its that the process of manufacturing the carbon wheel interrupts the circuit needed to keep the heat functioning.

Same here. My wife could care less what mods I do to our car. Take away her heated steering wheel, and she'll trade it in. I wish someone could figure out a way to mod a heated wheel.

Living in the Midwest, I thought "yea, heated steering wheel, that's funny". First sub- freezing day with one = "I can't live without one of these"

Put one of your steering wheels in your kitchen freezer for a couple of hours.

Take it out and hold it for five minutes.

You now know what it's like to drive in Philadelphia, in January.
