RE: Retrofit heatet steering wheel

There is a video on youtube showing removal of the steering wheel, with the intentino of a heated wheel retrofit.
Since all controls are on the wheel I would say 'yes' retrofit is possible.

Ordered: Fuji Dynamic Lux Coupe / style 7 wheels / Privacy glass / adaptive xenons / something else which I've forgotton.
Should be end of April (was March, then April, then end of May/June).

Yes it is possible - there is a video on youtube which shows the parts needed and another two videos showing how to remove the old one and fit the new one. Its not going to be cheap though - you need the steering wheel itself, new left hand control pack, a short wiring loom that goes inside the steering wheel and a replacement central section that the steering wheel attaches to.

It's also been quite a common modification among the FFRR & Disco3 guys, if you take a look over on Disco3.co.uk and FullFatRR.com you may find posts about how to go about the conversion

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.
