    I've been looking to add the LED carbon fiber steering wheel to my 488. All interior and door panels are carbon fiber, but I guess the previous owner did not want the carbon fiber steering wheel. I am still waiting on dealership quotes, but no one has gotten back to me and they have concerns of shipping times. In my search, I came upon this deal. I contacted the seller and he says its genuine Ferrari parts. It seems too good of a deal. Let me know what your thoughts are.

    $6,500 USD sounds fair to me. The seller has 935 eBay transactions and a 100% positive feedback score. I'd feel confident in purchasing this item.

    Just one thing to consider: if your steering wheel has no LED bar I think you'll have to go to your dealer and have the new one re-programmed, even if you planned to do the swap yourself.
    I am not 100% sure, but I would recommend to clarify that before purchasing, as it is an additional cost to dial in, plus I would make sure your local dealer is happy to do that on a wheel they didn't sell themselves.
    I hope it helps...

    There are multiple threads on this and the conclusion seems to be no re-programming required but you will not have the menu option to turn it off/on it will also just be on. Unless I'm mis-remembering that it also applies to the 488... A quick search should solve this question.
