Inhave a carbon fiber steering wheel showing up next week from zen carbon fiber. Pricey but it’s one of the only carbon wheels that retains heating

Did you order the one you posted the link to? Did you pay 650? I saw a few on ali as well for about $300-$350. The pictures look identical, and even the ebay one is shipped from China. So I'd assume theyre the same.
I might pull the trigger on that one as well, just not sure ebay or alibaba just yet. I have the heated steering wheel as well in my Laramie.
But im probably going to need to add more carbon fiber to the truck. Going to order the pieces ebay. Let me know how the steering wheel goes.

Just an update on this post, the ebay seller got back to me and my steering wheel got shipped. Here is the pic he sent me of it. So it seems that this one is straight plug and play with heated connector included so no modification is needed. steering wheel 1.jpg steering wheel 2.jpg

So an update. It's not a true plug n play. You have to still solder the heated wires. I did the full install following waterfowler vid cept I now have a ticking noise and can't firgure out what it is to save my life.


I dont think it is the clock spring because it doesn't tick when I turn it without the wheel. Only with the wheel on that it make the clicking noise

@Jack. Not sure if you solved the issue but let me know if you need some help. I know what's causing the issue and figured out a way to fix it. The white clock spring trigger is not fully depressed by the new wheel.

I am placing my order from zen. I was wondering if anyone can tell me where I can purchase the connectors for the heating wires. I really would like to use them instead of cutting them. I have a 2021 Ram Rebel. Thanks in advance.

My wheel from Zen came with connectors already on the harness
