Looks like an e70 wheel so don't know if it would fit. You would also have the expense of a new airbag.

Looks nice but it isn't the greatest advert mind as it say's 3 series in the description and the x5 and x6 in the main advert.

X6 cruise control is a stalk and is now part way down the left side of the steering column roughly where the electric wheel position adjuster is on the E53. Trouble is that the wheel adjuster is there too and if not careful it's too easy to try to adjust the wheel towards you and put the brakes on by accident! The cruise on the X6 activates the brakes when you bring the speed down. Why they moved it off the wheel face I don't know! Ergonomically it's much better where the X5 one is. It's one of the few things that bugs me on my X6.

The system is push stalk away to speed up, pull back to slow, flick the stalk up or down to suspend or twice to cancel the cruise function.
