Raptor Steering Wheel

There was a posting on how to install a heated wheel with paddle shifter. Someone was even selling wiring harnesses to help with the install.
A search shows up nothing. Does anyone know how to find it?
Thanks

Its a great upgrade, easy install, done in like 30 minutes.
SO much better than the stupid little buttons and you get the bonus of a very nice, fat leather steering wheel that feels so much better than stock.
No downside at all.

The steering wheel is very comfortable daily drove a raptor for 5 years . This is a mod I will be doing soon . Really noticed the difference in the feel of the wheel on my first long trip in the SD .

Im tempted to do this modification......went to multiple web sites. Cheapest raptor steering wheel I found is 395.00....+ 128.00 for harness. So after shipping about 600.00 +/- for the upgrade.

Then I ask myself WHY? ........( sitting on the fence )

Only you can answer that question for yourself. I will say, I'm glad I got BGG's harness before he started his website. I think I gave him $65 for it

Living in the mountains, the paddle shifters are awesome!

Yeah, agree on all counts with ATC above, only you can decide that, but its a double edged mod, the nice wheel AND the ability to shift with paddles.
I got in a little before the price went up on the harness, but I dont think it would have deterred me.

The stock 2019 transmission strategies are really not great in some situations,,, and go all the way to maddening in others.
The paddles give me the opportunity to very easily drive in manual mode and get around the stupid shift strategies (and its fun LOL).
I've drank the kool aid on this mod, if I was forced to have only one mod to my truck (horrors), Raptor wheel with the BGG harness would be it.

That's what I'd like to know. My new truck (F450) has Adaptive Steering. Would love to swap out to a Raptor wheel on this one.
