That is actually a beautiful steering wheel wow I’ve never seen this one before
Great informative video, no bullshit filler, just straight to the point with clearity
This was always scary to me as I didn’t know how the steering was set up. I hope my 335 is the same as this
Easier than I thought thx
Wow amazing work I have never seen this before
Mate you should start making these steering wheels, as I would buy 1 straight away
Amazing video.
Very informative! Thank you

Good tutorial, thanks 👍 I just got one of these wheels for my car and most tutorials are nowhere near as good
This is a beautiful steering wow and for what an amazing price too as I searched for em
I’ve never seen a steering wheel like that before
Good job 👍
i would love to see a pov drive on daylight to see your interiuer greetings from germany
In my latest video of the digital gauge cluster, there are a ton of POV shots!
@@TheAutoSurgeon imma be honest i just wanna see the steering cause im wating for mine 😂
How’s the steering wheel holing up a year later??
It’s great! No issues at all.
do you have the link to the wheel?
I don’t have the link anymore, it’s been deleted. But if you just search for an e60 steering wheel on Ali Express, you’ll be able to find one. They’re all probably made in the same factory.
By re-connecting the battery without the airbag connected you're going to have the airbag warning light on your cluster.
Yes, but when you reinstall the airbag, disconnect the battery and reconnect, it clears the airbag light.
@@TheAutoSurgeon - Have you actually tried this, I can tell you that simply disconnecting and reconnecting the battery will not clear the airbag light
It absolutely does! You just have to keep the battery disconnected for about 10 minutes to allow it to reset. I’m speaking from experience-installing this steering wheel. If you’re having trouble, maybe try to keep the battery disconnected for a little longer, it will definitely clear - I can only confirm this if it’s pertaining to the steering wheel or the the door panel airbag, both of which I have removed and reinstalled without issues.
@@TheAutoSurgeon - The only way I've seen to disable the airbag light is with a dedicated scan tool, you would have to be the only one that 's been able to do it by simply disconnecting the battery, sorry for being sceptical but I've tried it on numerous occasions and it doesn't work.
I’m not sure, I don’t think my car is special. As long as the airbag is reconnected and good, I don’t see why the airbag code would be permanent. Maybe it’s a BMW thing, if you’re talking about trying it on different brands.
Hello brother I have a gen 5 galaxy pro led on a pre lci e60 is it the same method? I am scared to touch the clock spring 😆
Yes! Almost all LED steering wheels only require power and ground. Some also have a separate OBD2 module that needs to be installed. But in your case, your install should be very similar to mine. Just take extra care when opening up the clock-spring and you sound be fine. Good luck!
@@TheAutoSurgeon thank you brother i will give it a try,this trick not drain battary when the car is locked right? Thanks
Yes, just make sure the power source you tap into is only powered when the car is on.
@@TheAutoSurgeon I will make same with yours 😁 I trust you and I like also the interior lights it will be the next setup I hope
Is it similar connections with as the e46? To wire
You should be able to find a similar way to wire the power on your e46!
is this for a 335i??
It’s on my 535i.
Do you have a link for this wheel?
Here’s the link to the wheel, make sure you contact the seller before you place an order: a.aliexpress.com/_m0UUsr6
If the link doesn’t work, just type this into the search: Custom Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Alcantara Leather For BMW E60 M5
Thanks brother!!!
How much was it ?
About $1200 CAD.
holy fuck
the aliexpress lionk appears to be to a different wheel without the led display
It unfortunately looks like they’ve changed the ad. I’m sure you can find another one through a quick search on Ali Express! Most of them are probably made in the same factory.
@@TheAutoSurgeon how much did you pay for yours im considering just buying the led bit from ohc motors and doing the rest of the wheel diy
It was about $1200 CAD. It’s going to be a pretty involved DIY, depending on what modifications you’re planning to make. If you’re going to be changing the shape of the steering wheel (flat bottom with cutouts) you’re going to need to make a mold and remold the shape of the steering wheel. But if you plan to keep the original shape and just re wrap it in new leather with the LED display, it should be a relatively simple process.
