New Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel

Looks great! Enjoy.
I wish they had a flat bottom version.

That wheel turned out killer. We've been working with Faction Fab for awhile and we will be getting these on our site shortly as well!

If anyone else is interested, please don't hesitate to reach out!

They really did nail this IMO. I wasn't interested in a flat top or bottom wheel, coincidentally they came out with this wheel which is exactly what I wanted in a new wheel. Trying to find a round CF wheel with a red stripe, no core exchange and a fair price was un-possible until now.

Nick setup with a steering wheel as well. Ordered Thursday, delivered Friday. Easy install. Lovin' it!




The instruction video was slightly off on two pretty minor things though. Could be that my 2017 is slightly different. The first was that the green connector piece was attached to the bezel. It just slides up an off though, not a big deal.

The second difference was a little more difficult to deal with. Three of the wires were zip tied to the steering column. You have two options here. Carefully cut the zip tie...carefully. This is what I did for the two wires at the top. For the one near the middle/bottom (clear tie), it hit me that you might be able to just pull it out, and that worked pretty easily with a pair of needle nose plyers.

Those wires are not zip tied to the steering column! They are held into the steering wheel itself! Once you get the wheel off, you can unclip them from the back of the steering wheel - then press into the new steering wheel. Looks great!

What’s involved in the install?

8 minutes, really?


Thanks......

Super easy. Disconnect the battery. Pop airbag out - you still a thin screwdriver in behind each paddle, it unhooks on side, repeat other side. Disconnect cables to wheel. Unbolt wheel with 23mm (i think it's 23mm). Remove wheel. Transfer paddles and facia to new wheel. Install new wheel, reconnect wires, push airbag on. Reconnect battery. Done.
