Sport steering wheel on base model f30

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F273321827069

I have a 2013 328i xDrive,

At $300 shipped, Honestly a great price for a sport steering wheel with paddles and airbag included. What else would be needed to have paddles working ?

Wondering if cheaper to just go to local junkyard here in the states

How do you buy steering wheels, it's better MSport with paddles.

If you do not have paddles, you have to drag the cable to the module and encode.
A similar operation is shown here:

This airbag will be shipped from Europe and the question is whether it's a single or dual stage airbag (US specifications). I suggest to send a question to the seller.

For such a cheap price, be careful that you're getting a legit airbag. That's pretty cheap since most M Sport airbags themselves are selling on eBay for $600+.

Anyone wants to try their luck go ahead.

Saw it on Craigslist for a while and then hit him up and he sent me that link, kind of suspicious.

FWIW... you can get the Sport wheel without paddles as well. Then you wouldn't have to worry about coding.

All you need is coding and a couple of wires. There is a great diy on YouTube on how to add paddles. I added a sports wheel with paddles and heated.
