Looks great! Don’t miss the fake decorative screws. Where did you buy the black inserts and how difficult was the swap?

X2! I have noticed people talking about this but have not yet dug into what it would take to make this change.

Thanks,

I've been doing some research on this as I plan on swapping out the paddle shifters at some point this year, and have seen cross-posts about swapping out these wheel trims. It definitely require wheel removal to get access to the screws in the back for the trim removal.

What's leading me down a rabbit hole is:
  • Are all 718 wheels the same with the same connector to clock spring?
    I'm seeing differences where some have orange/red or green/yellow connectors.
  • There are mentions of getting CEL's after re-connecting the battery, and methods to prevent it ranging from keeping doors open, windows up/down, or waiting x-minutes after disconnecting batteries
note: I don't have the answers yet, still just researching :geek:
