Does anybody know of a C7 steering wheel swap instructional video or written instructions? I was lucky enough to pull the trigger on Deity's CF wheel and need to get info lined up before it arrives next week. Thanks in advance. I will take some pics when it is done

Looks like there is a lot of interest for these wheels.
Could you do a group buy?

I've hemmed and hawed over purchasing one of these ever since seeing your initial post. A group buy discount would seal the deal for me. Keep us posted on such an option!

Gorgeous products!! I have the alcantara/suede black interior and wheel but am tempted even though my triple black ZO6 vert is one of only 50 made in 2016. Tempting!!!

Unfortunately, not much more margin for additional discount. Carbon paddles and bezel are included in this deal, $500+ from other vendors. Plus the quality speaks for itself. It's something you will see and feel the most in your car, even more than your seats; so it is so worth the upgrade.

The way I look at it, if the wheel was $1900 and he said he would discount it to $1675 it would make it more attractive? I can't wait to see how this wheel looks in the sunlight with the top off, windows down in warmer weather!!!!

I can't argue with that. I guess I just need to pony up!

Pic not great but I'm very happy with the quality and feel of this steering wheel. Great vendor, I'll send better pics soon.Carbon dash next. Oh by the way only use a high quality T50 torx bit, it takes a air impact to remove the bolt. I broke a brand new Snapon and had to use a Mac Torx to finish the job but once you remove the bolt everything else is gravy. Well worth the trouble!

Matching the finish of the carbon dash is important to me. Are there two types of carbon dash on the ZO6?? Can the wheel be made to march? Can the wheel include some black alcantara to match the interior and current wheel? Are there other options for the horn surround?

Answered one part of my question: mine is the glossy version CF and there is a matte version too
