Roadster Steering Wheel for Tesla Model 3 / Y【Airplane wheel】
Airplane-inspired open-top shape
A different cockpit view—and a different steering habit.
Carbon-fiber and ultraleather surfaces reshape the compatible Model 3 or US-built Model Y wheel while reusing the vehicle’s original driver-airbag module.
- Original airbag transfer
- Optional retained heating
- Optional carbon middle trim
- Custom orders supported
Current live fitment
Model Y compatibility is factory-specific; refresh models are not listed.
| Vehicle | Fitment | Order check |
|---|---|---|
| Model 3 · 2017–Aug. 2023 | Compatible option | Confirm original wheel/control architecture and select the Model 3 choice. |
| Model Y · 2020–Feb. 2025 · made in USA | Compatible option | The selector explicitly limits this option to US production. |
| Shanghai- or Berlin-built Model Y | Not listed | Do not use delivery country as proof of factory. |
| Model 3 Highland | Not listed | Refresh control and wheel architecture is different. |
| Model Y Juniper / Model YL | Not listed | No refresh-generation option is live. |
Model year ranges do not resolve every production change. Send clear photos of the front and rear of the original wheel plus the VIN’s factory indicator when fitment is uncertain.
Three choices create eight live combinations
Vehicle, heating and middle trim are separate decisions.
No or Yes
Select “Yes” only for a compatible vehicle originally equipped for steering-wheel heating.
- “No” does not retain wheel heat
- “Yes” requires correct wiring and installation
- No fixed warm-up time or surface temperature is promised
No or Glossy carbon fiber
This option concerns the visible middle trim—not the driver-airbag module.
- “No” means transfer/reuse compatible original trim as required
- Glossy carbon changes the supplied trim appearance
- Buttons and controls must be confirmed for the chosen configuration
The compatible original driver-airbag module must be transferred. A selected middle trim panel is not an airbag and should never be described as one.
Shape trade-off
The instrument view opens; the 12-o’clock grip disappears.
The open upper profile can expose more of the driver display area, but it removes the familiar top hand position used on a round wheel. Parking, U-turns and hand-over-hand steering require deliberate adaptation.
Changing wheel shape does not increase steering-system capability, road feedback or crash safety. The vehicle’s steering ratio and chassis remain unchanged.
Low-speed turns
Practice large steering inputs in a safe, empty area before normal traffic.
Control reach
Confirm scroll wheels, buttons, stalk functions and hand clearance after installation.
Local rules
Yoke/open-top wheel legality and inspection requirements vary by jurisdiction.
Installation decision
Watch the procedure, then decide whether to DIY.
The work involves the driver airbag, electrical connectors, steering controls, trim transfer, central fastening and post-installation function checks. Professional installation is recommended; experienced owners can review the video and official Tesla service information before deciding.
- Disconnect and handle the airbag only according to the exact Tesla service procedure
- Do not copy torque values from a different model or build
- Confirm wheel centering and full lock-to-lock clearance
- Test horn, scroll controls, buttons, lights and warning status while parked
- Verify heated function only when the “Yes” configuration was selected
- Do not drive with looseness, warning lights, noise or any control fault
Review the applicable Tesla Model 3 or Model Y service manual before work begins.
Before you order
Roadster steering-wheel FAQ
Is the driver airbag included?
No. Transfer the compatible original driver-airbag module. Middle trim and airbag are different components.
Does “Retain Heated Function: Yes” guarantee the same heating performance?
It specifies a heating-retention configuration for compatible vehicles; no fixed temperature, warm-up time or identical-to-OEM feel is promised.
Does it fit Model 3 Highland or Model Y Juniper?
No option for either refresh generation is currently listed.
Will installing it automatically void the Tesla warranty?
Warranty treatment depends on jurisdiction, warranty terms and whether an aftermarket part caused the reported issue. No blanket “no effect” guarantee is made; retain original parts and installation records.
Can a customized wheel be returned?
Custom specifications and installed steering components may be excluded or restricted. Confirm all configuration details and review the current refund policy before ordering.
