Default Flat bottom steering wheel

I am looking for the best place/vendor to buy a flat bottom (D) steering wheel. I have seen them from $300-$1000. I have a 2014 2LT with black interior. Thanks!

If you want OEM, I would look at trunkmonkey or Cultrag. There are a few aftermarket vendors that carry them too if you want something a little fancier.

Trunk monkey got me a d wheel with red paddles and red stitching at an unbelievable price. Shoot them a message here and see what they can do. Think their username is subchev.

FWIW, what is the appeal of the flat bottom wheel to make one upgrade? I bought a 2017 in Oct. I find the wheel strange to be honest. Maybe takes some getting used to but not something I'd spend $$$ on to change out the round one.

Trunkmonkey has great prices, but the last time I checked on an item from them, the shipping was crazy expensive...

I had one on my S5 (Audi) years ago, and I remember on those forums people who didn't have them would sell a kidney for one. I can take it or leave it... like you, I also bought my 2017 in October. Twinsees!

I think the advantage of the flat bottom is that it gives you more room between the seat and the wheel, making it easier to get in and out of the car. I can't think of what else it would do for you. Other than look neat, of course.
