I didn't know JVC made steering wheels. I thought they just made VCRs, TVs, and stereos in the 70s and 80s.

$120? Did they do anything else besides swap the steering wheel (a 10-15 minute job)?

It was more than a 10-15 minute job, they charged me one hour's labor and it took nearly 45 minutes to complete the job.

I saw the one on ebay used but after checking all pics there are several damage to the leather :/.

Ecs, do you offer discounts?

Yep we can get it. We have free shipping on most products but we don't have a discount or coupon code. You can always check out are sales icon or clearance icon on the top right hand side of the site once you log into your MINI on the drop down menu. And if we have a super sale or ECS exclusive price I will always shout it out on the forums News or Announcements.

Hey guys quit update, I spoke to my dealer service manager and he told me they can make the paddle shifters work as a retrofit. He told me the cost is 200.00 and it includes the coding needed to make the paddles work.

I wanted to do it but 200.00 plus 550 a new steering that is just too much!

So I checked eBay again and for my luck I was able to find a brand new JCW steering for 300.00 and I got it install for 80 dollars at a certified BMW shop

Ah, nice Thanks for the update. Was not sure if the program flash would take 100% on the paddle shifters.


New wheel looks great. I think every F56+ MINI should have that wheel.

Nice steering wheel! So if you have no paddle shifters, did you still code transmission to Sport Auto?
