M models get full M1\/M2 button functionality; non-M models are compatible but M1 and M2 buttons will not be functional. If your car has the Driver's Assistance Package, it must be coded out before installation to avoid a persistent error code, this is a required step, not optional. The included paddle shifter kit is designed for 8-speed automatic transmission only. Manual transmission owners can still install and use this system for its other functions, but the paddle kit is not applicable. This system removes the factory airbag. It is designed strictly for track, off-road, racing, and competition use only. It is not street legal and must not be used on any vehicle subject to a state safety inspection. JQ Werks and Redline360 strongly require the use of a 6-point racing harness and roll-bar when using this system in any off-road or track application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs and Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndustry's first steering wheel system to combine both CAN bus and LIN bus technologies in a single hub, enabling plug-and-play operation with no wiring modifications, no splicing, and no fault codes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccess to over 40 additional vehicle functions beyond the factory steering wheel depending on chassis, including high beam flash, wipers, turn signals, shift lights, TC adjustment, cruise control, and more, all from the steering wheel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully wireless operation, no cables between the wheel and hub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-axis CNC-machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum throughout, wheel, adapter hub, and quick release all match in material and finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack anodized finish on all components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully programmable button layout configured via MadtraceLAB software, every button assignable to any function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-profile settings with layout switch function, swap between saved button maps and LED profiles on the fly from a rear-mounted switch without connecting to a computer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional OLED Driver Information Display (DID) available for real-time telemetry data and on-the-fly profile switching without a laptop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevLEDs CAN bus shift lights integrated into the hub, all lights flash red at redline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRGB customizable button backlighting with adjustable brightness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C port on hub for firmware updates and future feature expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional motorsport-grade dual paddle setup available, all four paddles fully programmable and not limited to just shifting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports manual transmission vehicles for non-paddle functions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKit includes: main control hub, quick release base, adapter hub, adapter hub locking wrench, button stickers, allen key, JQ Werks stickers, paddle shifter kit (for 8-speed automatic only), hardware kit, optional steering wheel of selected choice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteering wheel options available at time of order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor track, off-road, racing, and competition use only.

Moreover, it is strictly prohibited to install this system on any motor vehicle subject to state safety inspection. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is of utmost importance to understand that our Racing Steering Wheel is solid, which could result in bodily injury in the event of a car accident. For this reason, removing the factory airbag poses a significant safety risk and should never be attempted while utilizing factory 3-point seat belts. Instead, we strongly require our customers to use 6-point racing harnesses with racing roll-bar for off-road use to ensure their safety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that these considerations may vary depending on the country or region you operate in. It's always best to consult with legal professionals who are familiar with the laws and regulations in your specific area and industry to ensure you are fully compliant with all relevant legal requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this different from other racing steering wheel systems on G chassis BMWs is how it handles the electronics. Most systems either plug into the factory control module and let it do the work, which causes function loss and fault codes, or they bypass the electronics entirely and drop all your factory functions. JQ Werks decoded the factory microcontroller directly and built the communication into the hub itself, which is why everything from heated wheel to cruise control to TC adjustment still works through the new wheel without any external modules or splicing. The CAN bus and LIN bus integration happen inside the hub, not somewhere downstream in the wiring. One thing to sort out before you book the install: if your car has the Driver's Assistance Package, it has to be coded out first. If you skip that step, you will get an error code that doesn't go away until it's addressed. Your BMW dealer or any BimmerTech-capable shop can handle this quickly.\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JQ Werks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42756906418256,"sku":"sku-50151761805598","price":1699.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0058\/0252\/4785\/files\/58FCCDCC-D1AB-42E9-BE54-CEEADA1B36CD.jpg?v=1782846938","url":"https:\/\/shop.redline360.com\/products\/madtrace-gen2-podium-line-racing-steering-wheel-system-for-bmw-g-chassis","provider":"Redline360","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
