The new BOSS wheel fits the bill.

 

Personally, the BOSS wheel trumps all.

 

Uh-huh, and where will you be getting one of those anytime soon?

And once the parts for those cars do become available, that wheel will be pretty pricey I'm sure.

 

Thus my plan as follows:

Buy Competition Orange BOSS Mustang with Recaros.

Done!

 

Does anybody know the part numbers of the 18R fleet option Driver Ornamentation Package leather steering wheel and automatic transmission shifter handle?

 

I have read that base mustangs that were used as fleet cars such as rental cars could have been bought with a fleet only option called 18R "ornamentation package". The option consisted of a leather steering wheel with audio controls and an automatic transmission leather shifter handle. I found a 2011 base v6 mustang for sale online which had the leather steering wheel and leather shifter handle. The ad also included the VIN number of the car. I used that vin number to order the leather steering wheel and leather shifter **** from Tousley Ford. The steering wheel cost me $186.00 and the shifter **** cost me $53.43 I will post pictures once I receive and install them.

 

Well played. That's pretty much the only way to do it.

 

Those are pretty good prices. did they give you a discount or is that MSRP?

 

wow, Tousley Ford has some amazing prices! I wonder how they sell everything so cheap.

 

Indeed it does!!!!

 

You make your wife drive a Toyota.

 

I emailed them back and forth a couple of times and then called them and told them about their own website to get their discount.

 

I know this is ressurecting an old post, but I am struggling with installing this wheel on my '11 base GT.
I have another post on it already, and I have PM'd radiohead and cinque35 for their expertice on it.
I think what cinque35 said is the key...
the buttons pull straight out
I think that's what I've been missing. I've been trying to pry them out, but they don't look like they come out that way.
Looks like that whole thing just slides out towards the center of the wheel. If I can figure it out, I might even try this at lunch today in the parking lot at work.

 

I'm trying to piece things together. You are talking about replacing the base 2011 wheel with the Bullet? One issue is that the wiring connectors are different. But by moving the buttons from the 2011 wheel to the Bullet wheel that solves the connector issue because the wires are one piece with the buttons. Am I understanding it?

 

Does the switch the other way work? Can you replace the cloth with factory leather? Any modifications required?

I'm not a fan of the factory leather but my wife wants it because the factory cloth seats are like velcro to dog hair! It never occurred to me that she might want to take the dog with us anywhere in this car. Found some new car takeoff leather for cheap and wondering if its a simple install. And if so, has anyone done it and did they need/wish they had upholstery experience?

 

Exactly!
Plus the buttons that come on the Bullitt wheel illiminate green, not blue.

I'm just not sure how much force I need to slide them out. I don't want to bust anything!

...if our two golden retreivers ever went for a ride in my Mustang, at least my seats are tan. The hair (and there definitely would be hair) would blend in! ...then there's the slobber!
That's why my wife's Equinox gets dog duty.

 

Much thanks to Cinque35 for his pic and description!
NOW I see what everyone else was talking about.

 

My last question is:
How hard do I have to yank on that sucker for it to slide out?
I'm trying to pry it out with a screwdriver near the wheel edge, while pulling the wire end. It's not cooperating.

It's my normal luck with this sort of thing.
What's easy for everyone else, turns into a huge project for me.

 

Here's what you do: Put the wheel on the car and wrap the wires around the air bag.





Then just run into something....

 

Maybe try a little bit of heat to get things to loosen up. Either a hair dryer on a high setting or a heat gun on a low setting.
