Re: Retrofit newer M sport steering wheel??? (archive)

the only thing i can speak to are the clear euro lights. i bought front, side markers, and rears from www.bekkers.com for about $450 total. someone told me they got the entire set for a little less at www.circlebmw.com.

one note: they'll ask you what year your car is. i had originally told them 1998 and when i got the taillights in, they were the dull white. i sent them back and got the much brighter lenses that you find on the new e38's, and they look fantastic. make sure you tell them you want to newer model lenses. they will be an exact fit for your '96 750.

I have a 1996 750iL and I want to know if the newer three spoke E38 Sport Steering wheel (seen on the 740i Sport) can be retrofited to my car. I don't really care if the stereo and phone buttons are compatible but I hate the older "big" steering wheel. Anyone done this or know if it can be done.

Also want to replace the rear tail lights with the clear ones as well as the fronts. Any recommendations on who has the best prices. And lastly I want to replace the chrome window striping (and the chrome on the bumpers) with the all black treatment. ANyone done this and if so how much did it cost and where did you get the parts.

Thanks,
