Heated steering wheels on ebay!

Post by MrMaloo » Mon Oct 21, 2013 10:54 am

For anyone seeking a heated steering wheel for their x5 - seen a few on ebay this morning. One seller doing them at a very reasonable £175. Search worldwide for e53 lenkrad! Get em while they're hot lol

If you're dithering about the value of these I'd say that of all the options I got on my 2010 E70 this is the one I found of much more value than I expected.  Use it every time I get in the car between November and March (maybe more).

But I do live in canada!

Thats good to know! Out of all my extras heated heats and pan roof are my favourites.....but I'm sure i'll enjoy warming my hands on the new wheel when it arrives.

Is there a thread for retro fitting these ? Can you fit facelift heated steering wheel to a pre facelift ?

Try thisfor the link - say 7er but similar. I have a pdf for the E53 if you want it. PM me an email address.

New wheel can be fitted to the old but you need to check you have the wiring there in the first place being a pre-facelift and then you'll also need to fork out for the airbag, as they're different.

I'd consider retro fitting one if I had heated seats - just seems daft fitting a heated wheel when chairs are cold - I cant justify fitting heated seats and wheel unfortunately  :)
