MKV Supra G8x LCI Steering Wheel Retrofit

[NitroYellowMKV]

Well a few months ago I had an OEM G8x LCI wheel turned into a supra wheel and think it came out amazing! So far I have done a handful more of these and it really is a great looking swap! Been meaning to post this sooner but life has been busy as some of you know I started law school, it has been a hell of a journey so far and time has been hard to come by, but still very much active in our groups and in this community!

Going to be running some aggressive Black Friday/ Veterans Day/ Thanksgiving sales over the next few weeks and a lot of great deals on in stock stuff. In the mean time check this out, I love it. Like with all G series swaps, you risk loosing your gap adjustment for ACC, but from personal experience and dozens of customers, it is not a big deal, 99% of people have it set to the shortest anyway. As always, whenever you have any questions or to place an order you can reach out through here or my website (berktuning.com).

Do these work well with the Base model
Supra? I don’t have the fancy cruise control! Any lights or errors? Do the red buttons do anything?

Beautifully, no function loss, always a chance of error or soft codes, but they can be coded out- and unfortunately they are non op- supra lacks the needed hardware. I normally leave them off but this customer requested them.

Does it have heated steering?

no supra does, not something that can be retrofitted.

BimmerCode? How would we tune them out…my wallet is ready

I’ve seen posts on Facebook where people were able to retrofit G series steering wheel and bimmercoding heated option to it.

I am not in that group, but if that is the case I can definitely provide a wheel with the heated element and plug, but it would be on the customer to do the coding for that!

Will these work for manuals that don’t have ACC? Just regular simple cruise operation.

Please tell me those M buttons are functional. If not is there anyway I can code it in bimmercode for sport and sport plus?

Not on the supra. just there for looks.

Yes, no function loss with Manuals, they are the best candidates for this swap

Whoever can make the distance adjustment work gets my business. Until then I'm holding off, which is a shame because I really like the G8x style wheel. I'd be willing to pay a premium for whoever figures it out.
Bonus $$$ for heated steering.

I can make a wheel heated and have the revenant plugs needed, the coding would be on the customer. In terms of distance adjustment I’ve tried every conceivable combination of Oem bmw button combo’s, none will work with the gap adjustment. Its so minor of an issue most people I’ve spoken too have it to set to the shortest gap anyway, I’ve yet to meet someone who actively changes the gap distance they use on a high enough basis to make it worth the possible investment of making it somehow function.
