The cost of a fully customized AMG Performance Steering Wheel can vary widely depending on the type of customizations, materials, and features you choose. Here are the factors that influence the price:

1. Base Steering Wheel Cost

  • OEM AMG Performance Steering Wheel (unmodified) for models like the AMG G-Class or AMG GT typically costs between $1,000 to $3,500.
  • The base price can vary depending on the model year, specific AMG vehicle, and whether the wheel comes with basic features or additional functionalities like LED shift lights and adaptive controls.

2. Material Customization

  • Carbon Fiber: Adding carbon fiber elements, such as a carbon fiber grip or trim, can increase the price by $500 to $1,500 depending on the quality and extent of the carbon fiber used.
  • Alcantara and Leather: Customizing the grip area with Alcantara or premium leather, or opting for a unique stitching pattern (like colored stitching), typically adds $300 to $800.
  • Wood: Some customers choose wood trims for a luxurious feel, which could add $500 to $1,000.

3. Advanced Features

  • LED Shift Lights: Installing LED shift lights or performance indicators on the steering wheel can add an extra $200 to $500.
  • Heated Grip: Adding a heated steering wheel grip could increase the cost by about $300 to $600.
  • Haptic Feedback: Advanced haptic feedback systems, for example, for lane-keeping assist or feedback from the adaptive suspension system, may cost an additional $200 to $400.

4. Aftermarket Customizations

  • Quick-Release Mechanism: Adding a racing-style quick-release feature, which requires special adapters, could cost $300 to $800 depending on the brand and system.
  • Custom Logos or Badges: Personalized logos or custom badging may add $100 to $400, depending on the complexity of the design.
  • Gold or Platinum Accents: Some customers opt for luxury trims such as gold or platinum-plated accents, which could add $500 to $1,000.

5. Labor and Installation

  • Labor costs for custom installation (if you’re adding features like LED lights, quick-release systems, or a different hub) can range between $200 to $500 depending on your location and the complexity of the work.

Total Estimated Cost

  • A fully customized AMG Performance Steering Wheel can range from $3,000 to over $7,000 depending on all the added features and the quality of materials.
  • For a highly specialized wheel with top-tier carbon fiber, unique stitching, LED lights, custom grips, and advanced tech features, the cost can approach or exceed $10,000.

Notes:

  • OEM vs. Aftermarket: If you opt for aftermarket customizations (from brands like MOMO, Sparco, or OMP), the cost may be lower than purchasing a fully customized OEM AMG steering wheel.
  • Warranty and Support: Some customizations may void the manufacturer’s warranty, particularly if advanced modifications like a quick-release system or third-party steering wheel are installed.

For the most accurate pricing, it’s best to contact Mercedes-Benz dealerships or specialty performance shops that offer steering wheel customization services. They can provide exact pricing based on the specific features you’re looking for.
