Pretty easy job to remove the wheel, just the usual airbag safety measures. Don't have a guide to hand but it is in the manual. Can look up for you when you get to that point
I replaced mine with a brand new SVR wheel shortly after purchase. Needed to swap the internal wires and buttons across as not directly compatible.
Take a look at Royal Steering Wheels who come highly recommended from former car clubs I've been with http://royalsteeringwheels.com/
Thank you for this. Helpful as always
Found a couple of crib sheets on the US forum. The centre air bag seems to detach from the rear of the steering wheel using a special tool that looks like a bent flat screwdriver. Just a couple of clips.
The actual steering wheel needs another special tool, a ‘locking clock-spring’. Did you have this?
Never used a special tool in my life. Not much a Birmingham screwdriver can’t fix if a small flat blade screwdriver fails to do the trick.
As I said it was a simple job and happy to do it for you
2014 MY 3.0 V6S Roadster
Subtle enhancements to create the car I wanted from SVR nose cone, 400 series side skirts & customised 'design' rear bumper, to heated SVR steering wheel and more
It's my daily and driving with a vise grip is likely to be illegal so sending it out isn't an option
I'll visit some dealers
sorry for the hi-jack

I think the flat-bottomed wheel is the same size, but is "chunkier" so feels good in the hands. Assuming you like feeling a chunkier wheel, of course! Best to find one to try before you decide.
They can reshape the round steering wheel into a flat version & either add width or reduce to suit. What a great business.
so sending it out isn't an option
