Hello, what do we have to have in mind when it comes to the new airbag? So that it won't make airbag light on the screen?
@@tugaxD23 just disconnect the battery first and you won’t have a problem. As long as you use a compatible airbag, you wont have any warning lights afterward
It’s also possible to remove the airbag by turning the wheel 90 degrees. You’ll then see the clip from behind at the top! Without removing the covers!
Good tip!
@@MigySaan p
The batteries are disconnected !! No steering !
@@MrCornetto1 You can still turn it by applying some force 💪!
@@agilbert314 I'm not sure but i've heard that, that might damage your power steering
You should try retrofit the adaptive cruise system!
@Yusuf Peyton really don’t care
@Yusuf Peyton not a weirdo like you both
Actually, you must wait 5 to 10 min after disconnecting the battery before messing with airbags. You never know if the electric circuit in any car has a capacitor to work as a back up for safety emergencies.
True , many years ago I was reading the 97 honda civic technical manual, it mentioned something about a power storage in the airbag computer
@@domkraggp9944 American OEM's use backup systems to power up after disconnection and record data for about 100 ms after a deployment. I am not sure about the specs for European vehicles.
@@wysiwyg2489 Has this actually been confirmed anywhere for American OEM BMW airbags? I removed mine yesterday right after disconnecting the battery and had no issues. That said, I do think it's better safe than sorry.
@@ShockwavesFTW Hi there, my recommendation is based on 20 years of working experience with airbags. I don't know details about BMW airbag circuits but most USA OEM's include a capacitor inside the restraints control module (RCM) to trigger the airbag as a backup, some not. As prevention, the best is to wait for 10 min so any capacitors loads discharge completely and you discharge yourself any static current you may have, specially in winter and when working on a rubber mat. It takes about 400mA to deploy an airbag. Take care!
@@wysiwyg2489 Very useful to know, thank you!
Which airbag do we need so we don't have to do any coding?
get the Eventuri Air intake and a catless downpipe, add a stage 1 ecu mod and boy you are ready to push out 450hp like nothing ^^
If you want of course :D
Two tips:
1: As others mentioned, turn the wheel 90 degrees so you can reach the *bottom* clip once the steering wheel trim is removed. I'm really surprised Kies never mentions this because this is such a well known way to give yourself more leverage and make the removal a lot easier. The easy way to do this is to turn the wheel first, then disconnect the battery's negative terminal, then begin your work. Once the first clip is removed, you can just muscle the wheel to turn it the other way and reach the second clip. This won't damage the power steering or the wheel.
2: I don't recommend the extended paddle shifters because they're extremely wobbly even when tightened all the way. This is a known complaint that Kies conveniently never mentions. But if you do decide to upgrade the paddle shifters like I did, *be extremely careful* when taking the guide pin out (5:19). I broke mine and can't find a replacement because it's such an obscure part. They get extremely brittle over time. Also, the T20 screws that hold the paddle shifters in place are very delicate. Try not to over tighten them because trust me, they will snap.
Thank u guys for finding another way of doing this!!! The only reason i wouldn’t buy the m sport wheel was cuz how frustrating it was to remove the oem one!
you ma man for interior upgrades. No shifter extensions, but proper replacement!!! big thumbs up for your attention to the details 👍💪
I think bigger paddle shifter look better, but that’s only possible with extensions. Like what’s the point of getting carbon fiber paddle shifters if you can’t even see them😭
@@stumpsteph2153 wrong.
Amazing timing! Just got my new M-Sport steering wheel in the mail today. Thanks for this 😊👍🏾🤘🏿
Glad we could help!
I tried to remove the airbag with this method and struggled for over an hour. Just gonna take it to the Indy and let him tackle it.
should've got a steering wheel from AZA
Much easier to remove the wheel by turning the wheel, clockwise and anti-clockwise and releasing the clip with a flat blade screw driver. That's typivally how I've taken airbags off many VWs. Great fun video!
Hi. I also want to do that to my car. I hope you can solve my question. When I put the new steering wheel on, the audio and cruise controls still work normal? Are they connected in the same way as the previous steering wheel?
Can't wait for the next video!!!
That gauge and steering looks boss, Justin.
Another lit content from my man justin buice!!!!❤❤❤💯💯
Can the kies dry carbon paddles work with the sport steering wheel (non-msport)? Im assuming it will since i have the same paddles as the ones you switched from, but just wanna make sure. They would be a sweet upgrade to the sport steering wheel
Those interior upgrades are a touch!
So I already have the steering wheel you upgraded to, is there a way I can take off the original paddle shifts without taking of the steering?
Dammit you had to make this video after I installed my new M2 CS steering wheel into my M2,
Awesome videos with the upgrades. Have you thought about 6WB instrument cluster upgrade though ? Would be cool 🤙🏼
I've looked into it. I kind of like the traditional analogue gauges for the main gauges though
I did this upgrade on my 2013 328i F30. After installing, upward shift worked but not downward. I rechecked the wires and everything looks fine. Any guess what it would be ?
Wish this wheel could be put on a E90
just get rid of it and buy the new one. E90 is atleast 9 years old now
Check out Azza auto wheel on Instagram 👀👀👀👀👀
@@DaEverything1 Bro f30 can be 8 years old. First model of e90 is now 15 years old. Crazy times
Does airbag error light come on on the dashboard after refitting the airbag and did you need to clear errors after reseating the airbag?
I found online an Msport wheel with paddles, but my bmw has a manual gearbox, can I buy this steering wheel and simply remove the paddles, or it won’t work properly?
Very nice car. But I personally don't like the sport steering wheel of the F30. It doesn't match my taste😕. The base one looks better to me
Thanks for this video. I just did the m sport steering swap. I was wondering besides paddle shifter coding is there any other coding we should be concerned about like airbag etc.? I did have a "chases stabilization" warning come up on my test drive.
nice video...i installed on mine F31 with NBT a Linux system, no box needed, works really good with wired and wireless AA, i dont have iphone to test Carplay.
Were do you have your place so I can take my 528 I to change the steering wheel and how much it would cost?
Dude you are the only one that made sense. I watch 6 videos before and couldn’t get it. I saw your video and in 10 seconds I got it off.
Hi,
I have a manual bmw f30 with a standard steering wheel. I want to change it with an m sport steering wheel without the paddle shifters.
Do I still need to code it?
TIA
BMW is precision... Everything is done nice and tight.... Good work boys 👍🏻

I have a active hybrid 3 looks like a sports 2 muffler f30 sports bumper … aaam it doesn’t have tipronic on the steering can u but a tipronic and it works ???
Anyone w/ an m-sport wheel + dual stage airbag for sale?
Dang all the upgrades you have on here are what I want for my 2013. 🤩
Same here
That carbon shifters looks horrible, like a kids toy :) I would leave stock shifters, but anyway, thanks for the tutorial :)
Hello bro, why did I get a driver restraint system on the dash. I did the wheel install correctly and disconected the battery and everything?
It looks simple, but I'd pay someone to do this for me...ha ha...any shops in the Detroit area?
Wow, cool tutorial!
Question; if i want to upgrade the wheel on a base model manual to the msport wheel, do i have to look for anything specific or will a msport from a manual model work?
Mine's a pretty stripper model, but some mods will spruce it up a little.
it should be plug and play
@@justinbuice Nice! Thank you. Will be on the look out for one.
You'd be surprised how stripped down f30s are here over in europe compared to us models :D
coil overs and exhaust! when can we expect these videos? 👀
Filming the exhaust video this week :)
how come some M sport steering wheels have a split in between the silver trim piece and some do not? is it a difference in the years of the steering wheel??
is there any problems cause by disconnecting the battery? thanks
Can I have the stock one please 🙏🏽
This car is looking like a beast. So excited for more mods on the car!!!!
Can't wait to do this to my F30
For that airbag that was removed, would that be a dual stage or triple stage?
Can I install the paddle shifters and get them to work if mines didn’t come oem with them
Nice wheel. Even better when they're heated =)
Those P3 vent gauges are pretty cool but at close to $400 it's a bit of a rip off when you consider how much simple HUD display costs (around $20 to 50) and can show more or less the same info. I get that they are custom fit but even so shouldn't really be anymore than around $150.
It's definitely pricey, but you're paying for a finished product that's tailor made to fit the car. Not to mention the control module is programmed to show only the most important parameters, that way you don't have to scroll through literally hundreds of parameters to find the one you're looking for. At the moment, I don't think there's any competition for this exact product which is no doubt reflected in the price
@@justinbuice I get what you say with regards to the benefits of the product but you are talking around 10 times the price or put it another way 1000% more for those privileges. If it was 2 or 3 times the price or even 4 times maybe but as much as I love my car and like to do mods I just couldn't justify that kind of price difference for the benefits returned though I can understand why some might buy it.
Dose the steering wheel trick work on the E90 model ?
can you add this on a 320i to get the paddle shifters?
Ever thought of getting an old BMW to make videos with?
I'd like to in the future
I’ve got a F30 320d SE, will the flappy paddles work with this model just by swapping the wheel? Or is it only certain models that it’ll work with?
Great Content! How did you hide the wires for the P3 vent gauge after it was installed?
Can this same swap work on an G01 X3 ?
What all parts did you need to order to upgrade to the MSport steering wheel? Is it just the wheel, airbag, and multifunction buttons? My Sport Line has the paddle shifters and I'm wondering if you can carry those over to the MSport steering wheel.
But you never get the Airbag on ebay... forbidden by ebay terms and conditions. Its a explosive.... OEM is verry expensive.
How you retovit paddle shifter when there wasnt other ones before ?
What do I need to purchase to upgrade to the M Sport steering wheel if I have the standard steering wheel in my 2016 BMW X4. Do I need to find one with everything included? Buttons, airbag, everything? Would it be as simple as plug and play?
Can this be done to a 2013 bmw f02? My airbag looks almost like this one on your video.. I'd love to have the newer looking airbag on my 7 series .. can you help please
My 2016 320i Xdrive does not have OE paddle shifters. I love the look of the upgraded steering wheel, but is it still possible to do this if I don't start out with the paddle shifters?
I found the solution to my problem! I have replaced a regular sportline steering wheel with an M Sport steering wheel then the steering wheel heater stops working, I first thought that the heater in the steering wheel was broken, so I switched to a working steering wheel, still does not work !? but then I know that M sport steering wheel must be coded via BimmerCode because it does not have the same electronic box in. if you have bought a used car and do not check that it works it may be that before the owner has changed the steering wheel and not coded it.
Sorry for the typos, my english is not good 😊
been searching for one of these wheels
Mate !do you know any one in Sydney who can change my apple play as I have BMW 2012 model and I so need to change my Upgrade my radio please guide me , btw it looks so easy the way you do it , That 9" screen looks awesome , Many thanks
keep us posted .
Hi, can you pleaseeee tell me. If I don't have standard F1 leavers on the steering wheel, can they be added???
What are the torque settings for the wheel
Hey@justin I have a question where is Kies Motorsports located at ?
They are in Hammonton, New Jersey
@@justinbuice thank you but do they charged you for what they do on your car or they charged you for hours ?
Does the difference between the airbag shape including getting a new air bag? Or the old one fits in the new mod circle shoe?
did you ever find out
Hi nice steering wheel, one of the best looking and comfortable BMW steering wheels.
Can I check - do you need to key in any code of the airbag of the new steering wheel into the car's CPU after replacing the wheel for the new airbag to work? Thanks
Justin drops another banger!
And water is wet! 😎
🙏🏻
Disconnecting only the negative is not the way I would do it, when working aircraft you always disconnect positive side so you don't accidentally ground out to the airframe. If the positive is still connected any negative that touches the ground/frame of the car you are going to get a short.
You guys should just go check out kies Motorsport his videos are better 🤷♂️
Did you need to solder a wire from passenger footwell to steering wheel SZL? I retrofitted for paddles and it messed my car up I think
Why can’t bmw and all other car manufacturers add bigger paddle shifters
If i buy a steering wheel from a stock BMW M3. Can i use it on my 316i and do i need to code it?
so how do you know if you have the right airbag?? ive been seeing this a lot of places and i cant find the answer
Did you ever get an answer
what if the stock car doesn’t come with paddle shifters? will the paddle shifters work when you install the new wheel or is there more stuff to do
nice video, are these wheels heated if not where can i find heated oem stee
ring and airbag for f36 thanks
eBay as everything you need
How can I upgrade my seat covers to red for my BMW F30
How did you make sure you have the right airbag so it didn’t throw any codes?
You're soooooo ahead of me now that you sold your n52. I just can't keep up. I'm barely putting an M stripe on my e90 LOL
Can I do this for my BMW z4 05 and adapt the shifters in the back of the steering wheel?
We miss the black ice e90
This is too fancy 🤦♂️😅
I have the m sport wheel without shift paddles. Is it possible to install them on the existing wheel?
I returned the ecoboost that i bought and i got a challenger t/a lol the ecoboost mustang was not doing it for me
Way better looking, but you don't need to disconnect the battery to do this 😜
Another amazing video! 🙏🏼
Thanks!
That steering wheel is great , i can use also for model f11 ???
Really enjoying your videos. Do you know of any steering wheel mod to revert back to the old lever style cruise control?
Great going guys, keis motorsport and jd, hope to see kies independent channel soon
Has anyone ever swapped out a stock wheel for a heated unit?
Bro u see the older models yeah can u swap there wheels for a newer one like that
Hey how much for your old steering wheel??
I'm keeping it for now as a decoration in my office
@@justinbuice okay awesome if you change your mind hit me up! Loving the content man!
is it possible to add paddle shifters if the old wheel didn't have it?
Where do you order the wheel?
Can you put the f30 steering wheel on the e90?
Is there any disadvantage to upgrading to this competitive model? Is it uncomfortable? does the wheel shake?
just mainly looks and sporty feel I think
Is it the same airbag
Oooo I been waiting for this one
Hopefully you are going to do the M Performance kit.
lol what?
@@EliTheBMXER what??? I say hopefully he'll do the MPerformance body kit, front and back bumper, sideskirt, diffuser, front lip...
@@martinvlasicek3311 not what that’s called
@@EliTheBMXER ok, enlighten me please...
So…am I hearing you correctly: going from no paddles to paddle shifters doesn’t require any coding?
Was wondering the same, because i have the m sport steering wheel but no paddles
