I own a 2012 535i with a basic M sport heated steering wheel w/o paddle shifters. I am trying to find good info on this topic and keep striking out. I want to upgrade the steering wheel to the nicer/sportier steering wheel with paddle shifters and heat. I have come across numerous DIY's across the internet and forum, but nobody addresses which OEM steering wheel compatibility.
Should I only be looking at heated steering wheels that came on the M5? M3? 335i F10? What years of which? Yes, I know about single vs dual stage airbags if I were to buy one from overseas and having to code for single stage and I know about having to code the car for paddle shifters. I found a nice 2018 M3 steering wheel with heat and have no clue whether I'm going to run into harness issues or not? Just hoping someone else can shed a little light on this for me. |

You will need to stick to the f10 wheel, m5, LCI or not.
The modules and harness will need to be changed. I think Stuck did a thread on going to LCI and adding shifters. Of course of you go M5 the m buttons won't work. :-) |

Well I picked up this 2016 M5 wheel and started to build it out but then I have no idea which harness I would need to get and would this even work on my pre-LCI car? |

Hi, yeah I've read it, and very similar to what I'm trying to do. But he doesn't go into which harness he used and which control module. I'm guessing I need a harness that would fit the M5 with all the options, heat, paddles, etc? He doesn't go into detail on this that I'm aware of.

why would you need a heated steering wheel if you're in TX?

If I had a heated wheel I sure would keep it.
I went from e60 to f10 and didn't realize winter package had changed. I sure miss the heated wheel now! |
