[@faroos26]

Hey I have the same wheel and the monitor and lights stop working when its hot out.. is that normal?

[@tractioncontroldelete]

Faris Kerriou this has been my same reservation in purchasing it for my F82. It’s just too much money to have it not work

[@rickhoffman7656]

@ماكس # Yes you can install it on your M4

[@ronaldsison3707]

Great video! I just installed one on my F83. It was working fine, but when I turned off car and started again the wheel doesn’t pick up the RPM, hence lights won’t go on. You or anyone experienced this?

[@eduardosy8137]

Thic F30. Good day brother. Do you have recommendation where to buy the harness and module? I do have the steering wheel and want to do this modification. Thanks in advance and be safe. Ed

[@adamozkum]

There is nothing this guy cant do, love when you do these kind of installs. keep it up bro

[@Sidehustlesu]

Hi mate I followed your install write up on your website for the m performance steering wheel. Just wanna say a massive thank you, took me around 4 hours but did the install exactly like yours and works a treat. I took it to my local bmw retrofitter and they said it couldn’t be done. Thanks again :)

[@xih777]

I got the same answer, parts told me it can’t be done, it’s not legal in USA. Shop foreman said he will do it for $1500. BMW website USA advises $400 for installation. Dealership have been letting me down lately.

[@Schnitzer325ci]

Sounds like a stealership

[@shaunadams1294]

Damn son, you are a legend. I'd be to scared to do this.

[@Petah989]

Thanks for the install vid, I just ordered one for my M2. I couldn't resist the shift lights are too cool lmao.

[@jimmac56]

Cheers dude! Wouldn't have been able to install my wheel if it wasn't for your video so thanks for your time and effort! I bought a 2nd hand wheel which didn't have the wheel adaptor cable harness so it didn't work at first but I got in touch with the seller and we did a swap. All good now!

[@ThicWhips]

Awesome!

[@karlxu782]

Thanks so much for spending time and effort to write the blogs, and the make the videos, those are super helpful. probably can save me tons of money for more parts.

[@timg7885]

So impressive that you can figure out how to do all these installs! 👊🏾👍🏾 Looks awesome!

[@project9s888]

Thanks for the video. Helpful for my install. FYI that wiretap with the lime green wire. Make sure its hella tight and double check it and tighten again. Wheel Led's wouldn't light up and turns out it was that tap loose.

[@jg_media9]

Bro! The new wheel looks so good 👌 OEM all the way for all electronics. Great choice and thanks for showing us the in depth install. Appreciate that. Learn something new everyday 👊

[@warfire24]

That's a nice wheel. Well done on this complicated install. Great job! Not sure this wheel is for me though because it seems kind of busy for a steering wheel with all the lights and readouts. I just recently installed the MPerformance V2 wheel on mine and it was a lot easier to install since you don't have all that cabling. The cool thing with the V2 wheel is the blue center marker since it matches the blue in my seats perfectly and I also like the combo of alcantara and leather as well.

[@bulagcumisa5114]

Crazy Mod John, very impressive and one of the best. Great quality videos and details. 🙆

[@Rondoo29]

OG fan! Lol big apartment gains! I love it! I know when u get the house with the garage it’s going to be hooked up John!

[@vonfragyou]

Your mods are awesome. Love the detailed breakdown of kit and tools.

[@Mrexotic110]

Thanks man, I aprreciate everything you teach us, keep it up, and nice steering wheel 🤙🏻

[@jonnellas7680]

That’s the best mode I did to my car too mperformance led steering wheel!

[@schofieldspencer]

Looks so good, man. Love your vids, you work hard and it is inspiring to me, I appreciate it, keep it up.

[@rafaeldiazsalinas9608]

Hello friend, this sports flyer is an authentic beauty, thanks for so much information in tutorials, receive a greeting from your friend from Xalapa Veracruz Mexico.

[@oside_m5]

Great video. I just bought this for a 2016 F10 M5 LCI. It’s a different part number for different cars for some reason. Do these install directions pertain to the M5 also you think?

[@Schnitzer325ci]

Looks beautiful 👏🏽

[@Roflmfaoftw]

i saw a for sale F30 330D msport package with full carbon interior it had this steering wheel. car was rwd sick car tbh

[@MosRobPro]

It looks sick! But what will you be doing with the one you took off? Will you be selling it? I'm interested.

[@pewpew-_-2157]

ive been looking at this wheel more and i started realizing that the display looks bad on camera but in person looks really nice

[@mosfrye5678]

Hey man with those little black bmw wire taps, do you have to strip the wires or did you just press them in with nose pliers and they still made good contact to the metal?

[@ThicWhips]

You just press them in, no stripping. The wire taps cut through the plastic shielding once closed tightly creating contacts for both wires. Make sure the taps are closed all of the way or the contact will not be clean.

[@mosfrye5678]

Thanks for replying. Guess I’ll hook up the lighting function to the Bmw performance shift knob I installed. Wasn’t feeling those wire taps when I saw them. That wheel is definitely on my todo list but little upset that I already paid for that dry carbon trim and it comes with the new wheel.

[@PointShiftDrive]

Great job on the video... Trust me, I know how hard it is to not only do an install but film and document it as you go. Thank you for doing that. I just bought a M2C and you totally got me thinking about this wheel. I have always disliked the factory wheel and this seems like a good solve. however one question for you... That new wheel where the lights are, does that feel weird at all when you are steering a lot and your hands change textures? or non issue?

[@ThicWhips]

Nah non issue. You get used to it after day 1

[@machuchin69]

Thanks for this video I will do the same as a father and son project. 🙌🏻👍🏻

[@richardmantilla7679]

I have the same steering wheel but I don't know what is the best sep up to turn the lights on, I prefer to see the lights come on at speeds of 50 to 100 miles

[@ryanaskegard-guswiler4352]

This is so weird we both seem to always have similar cars we both had f30’s and now I have a f22 but you have got a m2 which is sick

[@BobanPajic]

Hey, why did you choose f22 over f30?

[@Saielb]

First time I saw mine light up I was like YYYYOOOOOO let's get it! Lol. Bro please be careful with alcantara but big CONGRATS

[@ruanjayaratne5008]

this is a really sick mod but I wonder if you can code in or somehow change the shift colour from red to a different colour?

[@DrMelInvests]

🔥 install as always! Man you gotta get a portable A/C or something for the garage! No way you're gonna make it through the summer with that NC heat! Not sure how you've made this far 🥵 😂

[@ThicWhips]

Got one on the way 🤙🏽

[@intlufo]

Nice job! Subscribed. I just installed this wheel on my F23 in April. I have noticed that when the cabin gets warm or the sun shines on the wheel, the electronics will not start. Instead, two red lights on each side blink twice, and the display does not turn on. After doing some research, it looks like there is a thermal protection circuit to prevent it from turning on if the wheel gets too warm. I'd be really interested to see if you have the same issue with yours.

[@ThicWhips]

Yup that just happened to me! Seems common under extreme heat. I let the cars cabin cool off, came back and it worked fine again

[@intlufo]

​@@ThicWhips I had it happen here in Maryland even when it was only low 60s outside and the cabin was not that hot, but the sun was shining on the display. I'm hoping to get back to garaging the car again soon.

[@fhdst]

I have this issue with mine. It doesn't turn on in the summer now at all. Requires hours of air conditioning for it to turn on again. So dissapointing

[@intlufo]

@@fhdst Same. I wouldn't recommend the wheel to those who want functional lights/display all the time, unless the car is garaged in spring/summer/fall. I have not been on a drive when the wheel turned back on with air conditioning.

[@andrealee2096]

I ordered an aftermarket steering wheel which came with a wireless OBD..wondering if that connects via Bluetooth? Would you happen to know if that bypasses the wiring steps in the passenger footwell?

[@WhatsyourForte]

You looked super tired after that install. Good stuff bro

[@ThicWhips]

Haha I definitely was.

[@buqueretrofittinganddetail6224]

Love your installs bro big ups

[@MrScholarly]

Thank you for this video. I wanted to get this wheel myself but I thought it only worked in automatic vehicles. I drive a 2015 M235i 6spd. I wonder if this wheel would function in my car.

[@MrScholarly]

I found the part # for my F22/ 32302230189. Looking to get this on BlackFriday to save some coin. Thank you for the PDF instructions. Great video!

[@fabre80]

Great job dude love the work you put out.

[@lloyddarby5078]

You mention not to turn the electronics hub ? How do you remove to wire into harness without doing so ? A little worried about this part of the process

[@hotdognobun]

I put Protective film over whole display/shift light cause I learned the hard way when it was in my 135i that scratches and swirls can happen at any time and boy does it look ugly in direct sunlight

[@joebiscuit2005]

Bro do you have an ideas where can I get the vibration the whole set. Thanks

[@5150shaun]

Great Install video Bro.....I have one on my M4 Competition....looking forward to the next video. Quick question....my performance wheel on some occasions does not fire up when I drive the car....I would welcome your thoughts or a follow up review after you have used it for a while

[@ThicWhips]

It’s overheating likely. This is common on these wheels. They are very sensitive to humidity and heat.

[@5150shaun]

@@ThicWhips ..Yeah it seems to be a common problem...thing is I live in Ireland and its baltic most of the time so it must be hyper sensitive lol

[@rafaelm9135]

Long video? No problem we love those

[@YoungTrizzy7]

This guy is unreal. Been here for the longest time ;)

[@SelectaRegulator]

Hi I’m about to buy that kit of someone but they don’t have the metal clip can it still be fitted with out it? Thanks

[@BendaDaniel]

Is there way how to automatic power on this steering wheel when car engine starts? I dont like that I have to always start it manually every time. Thanks

[@maurice8832]

Now install the m2 comp instrument cluster, it would be a neat editingto the steering wheel

[@hevendranarayansamy2793]

That looks 🔥 . Well done there.

[@SpiritTracks95]

ever thought of getting the LCI dashboard? might be tough to swap but i believe the LCI just looks sooooo much cleaner and elegant :o

[@ThicWhips]

I have. I’ll eventually do it

[@SpiritTracks95]

@@ThicWhips that's good to hear! Can't wait to see how amazing you will make your interior look with all the mods you have in mind haha ^^

[@ArunVijayaraghavan]

Yes, don't go cheap. The BMW racedisplay steering wheel looks awesome

[@Richuals]

Great content...Looks great! Was the previous steering wheel heated?

[@ThicWhips]

Yup

[@Richuals]

Thic F30 so does the heat function still work on the new wheel?

[@ThicWhips]

No. Mp wheel doesn’t allow heat due to electronic display

[@Richuals]

Thic F30 oh ok thanks for the response...I kinda figured that but I wasn’t sure...I’m loving the M2 content...your a great creator! 👍🏾👍🏾

[@MrHCars]

7/10.... 100/10 for effort damn!! Good work mate!

are the wires plug and play for the connectors? or do yu have to put the pins on the wires ?

Heyy this is a great video, would it be the same instal instructions on an f80 m3?

[@ThicWhips]

Mostly, yes. Likely identical

[@josephgherardi5266]

​@@ThicWhips thats awesome thank you even the wiring will be the same? i will be trying to install this week using your video and blog as a guide. any other advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated.

[@ThicWhips]

Yessir wiring and everything will be the same. Only difference will depend on paddles or not

[@josephgherardi5266]

​@@ThicWhips i do have paddles but i'm guessing they are just unplug them when removing and plug them back in when installing? i took them out once before when switching them to the carbon fiber paddles.

[@GeckoDays]

Super nice ❄️ Can you add paddles to this steering wheel?

Yes

[@crig9758]

Your know your stuff👊😁

[@dmlaa]

Looks so sick!!

[@fhdst]

The instructions say to tap the green and brown wire in the the passenger door harness. You've plugged them into the con3 and the footwell earth. Does it really matter where they go or can they tap into any voltage and ground?

[@ThicWhips]

The brown wire is just ground. You’re looking for any low voltage ground wire, footwell light does the job fine.

[@tooqz]

did you connect the brown wire to the brown wire from the footwell light? couldn't really see it in the video.

[@malle2981]

I installed it yesterday to my F82. The Led's + Display starts for about 10 seconds like in your video. (every time I press ignition button) After that the display turns off and nothing else happens. I can press both buttons, but the little display does not start up. The bmw manual says, that in some cases you need to use CON7 instead of CON2. I tried Con2 and Con7, same issue. Is there no can signal or maybe an issue with the buttons from the steering wheel (Left and right one)?

[@twinb5840]

Sometimes I’ll just drop the back seats in my f30 in case I shut the trunk still so I can climb tho the front to the back to pull the emergency trunk release

[@chinallue]

Hey quick question is this wheel compatible with a 2017 x5 f15/f85??

[@recoatali9307]

My turn signals don’t work can I update the firmware for compatibility
