The steering wheel is shown on a non-AMG car and the alloys are the Standard P90 Pack Wheels shown on an AMG SLK.

The P90 pack also includes larger disks (I love this better brakes myth going around its total BS) and a few other bits and bobs if you go on the Mercedes-AMG website you can see the pack info for yourself.

Mercedes have never made a pack where parts cannot be purchased separately it just does not happen i can get parts from any car like no matter how "special" the model for instance the new SLK Edition 10 limited run car i have all its parts on the screen in front of me, also selling parts separately does tend to help when it comes time to replace damaged parts alloys for instance if you kerb one beyond repair you go to MB and they sell you a new one.

I can assure you if Mercedes-Benz make that wheel i would have found it, there is one option in the US MB make a Sport Pack for non-AMG's since the wheel was shown on a standard SLK there could be a chance that its the wheel belonging to that pack i can get you the number but if the wheel is wrong when you order it you wont be able to replace it.

Would you like me to get you the PN for the Sport Pack wheel?

Dan, I think the PN for the sport pack wheel would be helpful. I'm going to speculate that that is the AMG styling pkg for the 350 which give the car the AMG looks (body kit).

Kenzed is from the Midlands in the UK. I don't think the F1 pack is a US option. Although it is nearly identical to the 030 US pack except for this steering wheel. Did you try viewing Euro spec wheels to see if you found this Leather/Alcantara sport wheel? My guess is that the wheel I want is a Euro only version.

I totally understand that all parts have to be available for replacment purposes.

Hi pal sorry about that box is clear again now.

Will get that PN for ya, If he is from the UK then he is BS'ing you there is no F1 pack here just the Performance Package.

The euro wheels where the first place i checked mate since i am based in the UK the machine defaults to Europe.

OK that wheel is not Mercedes-Benz.

That guy is feeding you bull****, i decided if i could not find it in the Merc & AMG DB's why not check the Brabus Parts Database and what do you think i found?

If you want it speak to Matthew Harold at Brabus NA and ask him for the price of the Sports Steering Wheel and tell him Dan Bufton says hi.

Enjoy
