2018 Steering wheel on a 2015 Sport

Does anyone know if the new sport steering wheel will fit the L494 2015 model ?? I know it has new black sensitive buttons will they work ???

I like the chrome bar in the middle of the wheel and new style buttons.

Cannot help on if its interchangeable but the new buttons are good but the 'fake' metal insert is total crass. Typical Macgovern form over function, terrible feel and looks like it came out of a Peugeot parts bin. Apart from the steering wheel I am well pleased with my MY19 after 6 months of ownership, would love to change to an SVR steering wheel (no fake metal insert) but have been quoted £650. 2018 MY19 HSE Dynamic, Santorini, Ebony/Ivory, Sliding pano, Adaptive cruise, Black wheels. Arrived 3rd September 2018
2015 MY16 HSE Dynamic, Santorini, ebony/cirrus, sliding pano, cameras, black wheels - Arrived 1 October 2015

One thing I never liked was the steering wheel on my 2017 SC. It always felt too thin for a prestige car. The steering wheel on my 2010 V8 was much better. Gone - 2008 Stornoway Grey RRS 2.7 TDV6

All fitted, I’ve ordered the new switches so I’ll have a go at fitting them.

Looks great!

May I kindly ask you to measure the scale of the wheel?
In June I will plump up my steering wheel. Before I had a BMW with a M steering wheel and it felt much better... Range Rover Sport HST D350

Looks the same as my 2016? Funny today I just discovered what the Mode button does, my biggest complaint was that I couldn't change mode from the wheel, maybe I should read the manual! M16 SVD8 ,4.4 HSE with a few extras, Sold R50 , Wife SQ5 , BMW R1200GSW.

@IRBails
The facelift steering wheel has the aluminium/silver ring. The older ones don't have this.
Also you can see the thumb pads, which the pre facelift model don't have Range Rover Sport HST D350

Hey the new button will not work without a adaptor harness. You wil lose some function. Please search for powerfulhK video on youtube.
