BMW 3 Series (E46) steering wheel FAQ

Will my BMW 3 Series (E46) airbag and steering wheel buttons still work?

Yes. Your factory airbag and buttons move over to your new Monaco wheel and work the same as they did from the factory. Before we build, we confirm the exact wheel in your BMW 3 Series (E46) with a photo of your current one (front and back).

How much does a carbon fiber steering wheel for a BMW 3 Series (E46) cost?

Ready-to-order wheels are $649, and custom builds in the builder start at $650. The final price depends on what you pick: carbon weave and color, grip material, stitching, an LED / RPM display, paddle shifters and a custom airbag cover. The builder shows the live price as you choose options.

Can I add an LED shift light or paddle shifters to my BMW 3 Series (E46) wheel?

Yes, on most wheels. The builder lets you add an LED / RPM display, carbon fiber paddle shifters or magnetic paddles. If an option will not work with your wheel shape, the builder tells you.

How long does it take?

About 2 to 3 weeks to build once your spec and fitment are confirmed, plus shipping. We ship within the United States.
