I was tired of not being able to have the steering wheel I wanted. There are some great options out there as long as your Mustang is a 2015-2017 and not later. I decided I was going to shell out the cash and get rid of the comically lame factory wheel that came on my 2018 PP2. Here's what I did and I am pleased with the results.
First I bought a used 2018 steering wheel from ebay seller LKQonline. The seller listed it as a 2018 model and even added the VIN from the car it was from. I checked the VIN and it was infact a 2018. The wheel cost me $107.50 and even came with the bezels, wiring and buttons! After "buy it now" I had the wheel shipped directly to DCTMS in California.
I contacted them via email prior to buying the wheel and they assured me they could infact make me the wheel I wanted for $597. Ivan from DCTMS explained the process and stated the wheel would be finished and shipped to me within five weeks. To my pleasant surprise it was shipped in about three!
Overall I am extremely pleased with how things turned out. The wheel is excellent quality and looks as good as I'd hoped it would. There were a couple of small issues I feel I should convey:
One. The wheel was shipped to my former residence. I take most of the blame for this as I believe that address is linked to my PayPal account. Ivan did email me to confirm where to send the wheel and I gave him my current address. After not hearing anything i.e. email with tracking from Ivan or the shipper, I wrote to him for the number. I knew he'd shipped the wheel with a restriction for me to sign for the package. I wanted to make sure I was free to sign by watching the tracking. Ivan never wrote back for days. Finally he did write back and that's how I found out about the package going to the wrong house and ultimately being held at the local USPS. So I went and signed and got the wheel from there, not the end of the world but slowed things down by about four days.
Two. Remember how I said that the wheel had all the pieces parts included from the ebay seller? Yeah well, that's not how I got it from DCTMS. I expected the wheel to show up complete and ready to be installed. It was only the wheel with no bezels, buttons, electrical or screws. Now this too is not that big of a deal and likely just an oversight by them. I wrote to Ivan again and he assured me they'd be found and shipped from California. As of now they are en route to Ohio and according to my email from PayPal they are also going to the wrong residence. Hopefully they too end up at the USPS and I will see them soon.
Here are pics of how it was received and ultimately installed on my car using the original parts from my stock wheel.
