My new steering wheel changed my life…

[Cpiguy]

This new steering wheel made me go from liking the car to loving the car. One of the best mods I’ve ever done. Worth every penny.

Nice. Where did you get that one?

Did you install it yourself?

Yes, many more details please! Cost, installation effort, DIY, etc.

It looks like the Hansshow one. Which is what I ordered for my car. The base wheel costs about $950 or so. You can add options like carbon fiber, full napa leather, heat, etc.

Installation looks to take about 20 minutes. I haven't done mine yet but will this week. It took 2 weeks for mine to arrive from ordering to delivery.

install is very simple. Toughest part might be the nut holding the wheel onto the steering column. If very very tight, may need two people. One to hold the steering wheel, the other to use a breaker bar to loosen the nut. Alternatively, a impact gun works well.

"..the Plaid and its 2.3 lock-to-lock turns violate the first rule of yokes, which is that you never want to have to turn one past about 180 degrees."

Tesla's monstrously quick 1020-hp Model S nabs multiple records, but is it truly great?

Neh, not the same, still no physical controls - all touch controls. Now imagine if those work as well and as fast as all touch controls in a 5+ year old (MCU1) Model S/X today. At least important things like wipers, blinkers, horn, etc are physical switches which work the same as when the car was delivered. All touch controls in 5+ year old Teslas are in a different place (sometimes moved from main screen to sub-menus), look different, and have an ever increasing delay in operation. The computer also crashes occasionally making the touch controls useless (the stalks still work, be it blinkers may have no sound) but the crashing is not specific to older cars, both our MCU1 and MCU2 Model S computers crash at a similar frequency (at least with MCU1 you don't lose your speedometer when that happens).
