we are evaluating a shipment of black buttons that we received for quality issues, some of them are not up to our standards and sorting is needed before we can add them to the store.

I replaced my cheap Chinese M1/M2 button logic board (lasted 3 months) and wiring with one from Nemgrea at MN Laser Cutting today. Can't recommend his work enough. If you're going to do this upgrade use his product. And his installation video is spot on.

Would love these in black or silver. I don't have any colors in my car so adding loud blue or red would dominate the cabin.

if you post a WTB thread on the F80 classified forums you'll easily get someone's oem black buttons, a lot of people there have replaced them with red/blue.

Just placed my order. I ordered the kit with the blue buttons. Can I get the orange lights changed to white?

Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forum and this is my first time owning a BMW F31 2014.
I want to replace the standard steering wheel of my vehicle with an M Sport steering wheel. Someone with an F30 vehicle is selling his steering wheel (available as standard in M1 and M2 steering wheels, there is a visual attached), and I did some research on the internet. It is necessary to make a connection from the "A173*7B Pin#5" socket of the vehicle (if there is a connection, it is not necessary) and connect the other end to the other "A83*2B pin#3" socket on the steering wheel.

I have seen some users use the M1 and M2 buttons to switch between driving modes, with a set on some steering wheels that do not have M1 and M2 buttons.

The person selling the steering wheel does not have knowledge about this issue, that is, he does not know whether a set is used or not, he had this procedure done in a service.

I'm wondering, do I need any wiring on the M steering wheel, which has the M1 and M2 buttons as standard? (inside the gearbox)

Thank you in advance to everyone who takes the time to respond.
