Fiesta ST Steering Wheel Gives Maverick Interior a Sportier Touch

[Kaytu]

Note to self six months go (if I could send it back):

"Hey, buy an XL, it will be a great canvas for customization. You're already going to rip out and replace the audio, you like the interior colors better. Think of the wheel options, do it! Not just wheels and tires either, I'm talking sporty leather-wrapped ST steering wheels.
You may even shave off some wait time due to low-chip usage without all the tech bullcrap".

I won't lie, I've enjoyed the fact that there's been so much to add, and I get to choose exactly what features I want! That said, your XLT would still look pretty damned good with a leather wheel - I'd just go for one with black stitching.

Also you've got the power mirrors. I fear the day someone nudges one of my precisely-positioned mirrors. Because it will be the passenger mirror. Guaranteed.

You had me laughing good with this though, thanks!

Very nice and subtle touch. Where did you buy your Fiesta steering wheel?

So I snagged this wheel off eBay, actually! Mailed over from the UK, so it took a hot minute.

Im lost, are the pictures of different steering wheels or just a bunch of pics of the one you swapped? Are the controls different? I seriously dont see a difference.

Steering wheels by and large are going to be round, so there's only so much difference you'll get before you're suddenly driving with a Tesla yoke. Nobody wants the yoke.

Wheels side by side picture, flat-bottomed one on the left is leather with red stitching. That's the new hotness. Feels good in the hand, adds a little sportiness to the interior. Wheel on the right is plastic, the OG Maverick wheel. Not leather, just your basic steering wheel. Good for pointing your Maverick in new directions but not much else.

Swapping the Fiesta ST wheel in gave my Maxerick XL a sweet leather wheel at a fraction of the price of a new one from Ford, and it looks great to boot!

The leather wrapped maverick steering wheel feels like the cheapest wheel on the face of the planet. Nice upgrade, I just wish I could find one like this that had heated wheel.

I see it now. I was focusing on the bigger 2 pictures since they were bigger. lol

Might look even better with a lil red in the Ford emblem or something. Like the inner ring around the blue oval.

Do you have a part number please?

Now that's a thought... I was thinking of working in a little red elsewhere, -just- enough to make it pop

Giving it my best shot here since I bought from eBay, looks like the part number might be H1BJ3600AE - but parts.ford.com doesn't return anything for that.

Brings up a million of the wheels on Google though!

Thank you! this seem to be a european part number. I really love the look of your steering wheel. I will go through my dealership, I am sure they can find it easily. So, there is no chance to get one with the same configuration as our XLT? I was hoping for quick in and out swap, don't want mess too much with the cables and buttons.

That's a good question! I wasn't able to find any when I did my search otherwise I would've snagged that. I'm in Florida, but opening up what we're able to do with our trucks drives me LOL

Flat bottom, heated, with working paddle shifters is what I'm looking for!!

And cause I know there's at least one person out there with a rage boner for me and my XL modding homies (I see that angry face)

I love my XL, y'all. I love it like I love my home, which I also worked to make my own. All this modding we're doing is going to help all of us down the line - and if digging into your vehicle to figure out how to make the magic happen ain't your thing, I totally respect that too. Just having my kinda fun with my kinda truck.

That's a question your dealership can probably answer better - that said, if you do have to swap control modules from your old wheel it's really just pulling the faces off the two wheels, and four T8 screws.

Good luck with it! I'm excited to see more Mavericks sporting changes that make your vehicle yours.
