alcantara steering wheel

mottati · 7th January 2007, 05:36

I am selling the alcantara steering wheel i've used for the past year or so. It has very minor "use" (i hesitate to call it wear) at the normal hand positions, but is otherwise in excellent shape. I'll take some pictures tomorrow. This is the wheel off the US 330 performance package, so no red/blue M stitching, and the thickness is slightly thinner than an 01-03 wheel, though similar to an 00 wheel. You'd need the 'pods' with the buttons from an 01-03 wheel (they are removable) as i needed mine for my new wheel. I came across a nice 03 wheel, wanted a change and missed the M stitching.
I'd like $250 shipped within the continental US. If you're local i'd help with the install. If you have an 00, you'd need an airbag, and the button pods. (i'll get a price on these from my dealer on monday).

Additionally, i have an alcantara shift boot, and handbrake boot. Both with imola red stitching. I had tried to sell these a while ago, had a buyer but he backed out at the end. I'd let thes go for $50 for the pair, shipped, or perhaps a special package deal if someone wants the whole lot.
Pics to come tomorrow.

i need to, uh, find the boots. I had someone interested a while back when i originally tried to sell them, i boxed them up and brought them to my office to ship, but never heard from the buyer again. I will look for them, but i do have one other person who pm'd me about them. Give me to the weekend for pics guys.
Jason, yeah, we should definately meet up sometime for a lunch or something.

Here is a thread with pics that i posted when i first got these, look to the bottom of the thread. Pics are not great, the alcantara looks reddish in these for some reason. Here's the link:
M5 Shifter Boot - are they always conected to the shift knob?
