ZIMABLUE Real Carbon Fiber Heated Yoke Steering Wheel for Tesla Model 3 (2017–2023) & Model Y (2020–2024) | Factory-Matched 1:1 Fitment | Hand-Stitched

It looks great and it's possible to do it yourself. I am not a typical DIY person, but I followed the instructions and watched couple of videos online. Airbag was easy to dismount using tools provided. The toughest was loosening steering wheel bolt. It took a lot of effort. I ended up turning wheel completely to the left and then wiggling the bolt. Replacing module was easy although I managed to install it upside down first lol I really like that all tools where included. I considered a hardware store run for a power wrench but luckily, I didn't need to. Steering wheel looks nice and feels solid. It is well made using quality materials and looks and feels amazing.

Have been wanting to try a yoke for a while. Saw this ZIMABLUE yoke for a great price AND a $60 coupon. The reviews were positive, so I ordered one. The yoke arrived the next day and was nicely packaged. I was ecstatic with the quality of the leather, stitching and materials used. It also came with the tools needed to install it as well as printed instructions. Took my time and the installation took 75 minutes. There are also a lot of good videos on YouTube how to make the swap. Never did feel like I was in over my head. One item not included but is highly recommend is a new patch bolt (Tesla p/n 1036655-00-A) that connects the yoke to the steering column. It has thread lock applied that will keep it from backing out. Torque it to 80 nm. There is definitely an acclimation period adapting to the yoke, but after a few days it becomes second nature. It is extremely comfortable for highway driving. The yoke is more thickly padded and feels great in your hands. The heating function works perfectly. You can’t go wrong with this yoke.

I’ve seen many reviews praising the Yoke-style steering wheel for the Model 3 or Model Y. After researching, I still recommend either keeping the stock wheel or switching to a round-style replacement like this one. Here’s why: 1. Safety first. The Yoke style mainly changes the look but doesn’t bring the key software or hardware features of the Model X/S Yoke. The X/S Yoke uses “steer-by-wire” with speed-sensitive angle response—a feature not supported on Model 3/Y. Yokes work well for racing, where minimal reversing or tight turns are needed, but for daily city or highway driving, we constantly reverse, park, and make 90-degree turns. Without steer-by-wire support, Yokes can make these maneuvers harder. A round wheel keeps full functionality and safety intact. 2. Better build quality. Tesla’s stock wheel has low-quality faux leather and weak adhesive, which can bubble over time. This aftermarket round-style replacement claims to use Nappa leather, a clear upgrade. Early impressions are positive, though long-term durability will be the true test. 3. Easy installation and 1:1 fit. Replacing the wheel involves popping the airbag, disconnecting two connectors, loosening the central bolt, and reversing the steps. This round-style wheel is most likely a 1:1 match with the stock one. The hub feels identical in quality, and it’s likely sourced from the same factory—probably excess inventory repurposed for aftermarket sales rather than a brand-new mold.

Just installed this myself a few days ago and I love it. Surprisingly, getting use to the yoke wasn't a huge learning curve. I have a 2022 M3 performance. I've been wanting to do this mod years ago. It's a little easier now bc you don't have to unhook the battery and the price has gone down a lot. If I were to do the install again, it would probably take 30 min but realistically as a first timer it will take more like 2 hours. It took me this long bc of 2 things, breaking the bolt loose and having to assemble a re-assemble a few times (explain later). My wheel came with tools and the internal wiring harness (wires and harness with the 3 plastic rings). The tools are great but the key they give you to pop the air bag off is too big for the hole. You'll need to have a small (tiny) flat head screw driver to fit threw the hole. The instruction manual they provide is useless. Not detailed and doesn't show you all the steps. I suggest you watch a few youtube videos as you will pick up different tips in each video. TIPS: You first should power off the car (safety, scroll to bottom, power off). Then pop air bag loose on both sides. Use pliers to help you release the wire from socket. Use pliers to pull down on both tabs at same time (top & bottom) but don't use it to pull it out (use your other hand). It will come out easily once the tabs are down. First hard part is breaking the bolt loose. It comes factory super tight with loctite on it. The tool they give you is good but I needed more leverage to break it loose. You need one hand to hold the steering wheel and pulling in the opposite direction as your pulling in the other direction with the wrench to screw off the bolt. I used a metal pipe to add more leverage to the end of the wrench to finally break it loose. Once you take the wheel off, you have to pop off the 3 plastic circles, unscrew 4 bolts, and then unhook the heater connection at the bottom of wheel. This will release the middle console with all the internal wires connected to it. Most of the youtube videos will tell you to put all this into the yoke wheel (which I did too). I did this but realized once I assemble it all that the OEM plastic circles wouldn't click into the circles in the yoke wheel. So you have to use the internal harness that it comes with. You have to switch out the OEM wires and connect it to the middle console. You have to disconnect a few things and reconnect it with theirs. But its easy and pretty straight forward as the wiring harnesses are identical. Taking apart the connection for the heater is at the bottom of the console. You have to unscrew 4 little T10 screws (tool not provided) to access them. Once you connect all the wires, just follow all the steps backwards and you're good to go. It's honestly not that hard. I didn't find a video that shows all these steps together but you'll be able to find them in piecemeal.

I would say more like a 3.5 out of 5 stars but I settled on giving it 4 stars. It's a beautiful steering wheel... feels solid and very oem. But the white isn't the same color as the seats and it's noticeable, to me at least. It comes with all the "tools" you need to install but they are garbage. Please please please DON'T use the giant allen wrench they include to remove the steering wheel bolt! You will thank me later.... get yourself a good 10mm hex socket with a 1/2 drive and a breaker bar (18"-24"). Otherwise, it's a great product at a great price. I'm not returning, so for all the negatives it's still definitely worth it.

Excellent quality. Comes with required insulation tools and clear instructions. Highly recommended.

Fantastic fit and finish! Came with the airbag springs and wiring harness pre installed! The provided tools worked great surprisingly, and I had the whole thing installed in under an hour with nothing but a YouTube video that I watched the day before to guide me. Really simple, great quality, great feel!! Worth the price if you want that unique look and futuristic style.

Qualité incroyable ! Facile à assembler il faut juste aller sur YouTube et regarder une vidéo par contre un tout petit peu gros comparé au même volant tesla original mais on s’y fait bien ! Ça chauffe très vite et la maniabilité est génial, on se croirait pilote de F1 ;)

Don’t order if you’re not a pro!

It looks like it would have been great but my box clearly came pre-opened and stuff was missing. The top layer of black foam was not there at all. It only came with 2 tools. The ziploc bag was empty. The instructions were ripped and crumpled. The two tools were just loosely sitting in the box. And from what I can tell, there should have been a cloth included.
