new yoke retrofit quote, should I do it?

[blancexx]

got an estimate from SC to do it. yoke with revision H, $1000. yoke airbag, $600. labor, ~$100
I really like yoke, because the round one blocks my view to the gauge cluster so that I either have to sit weirdly or have the top portion of the gauge blocked. I tried it in a rental earlier and found it to be cool looking and not hard to use.

However, for $1850 after tax, that's quite a lot for a yoke.. But then I can't find anyone else online selling newer H revision..
There are people selling napa wrapped yoke, for cheaper, but I'd use my own airbag. not sure if that's safe.
Any other aftermarket recommendation? I found this Original Tesla Plaid Steering Wheel For 2021 Model S X|Hansshow, for $800. but not sure about the quality, and the stiching seems to be right at where one would grip the wheel which I can imagine would be uncomfortable

Your car must be a pre-refresh (before 2021) car with stock round wheel. I dont know if a yoke would work. Look at Tesla website, yokes are now a $1000 option.

Oh. Yoke price has changed many times. My Feb 2022 MSLR came standard with a yoke. Then they offered retrofit round wheels for $750. Then you could order free either one. Then the yoke was a $250 option. Now yoke is a $1000 option.

I'd like to have both, live with both for a few months. $600 for both I'd do. The winner for "ME" stays the loser goes.

Ha, it says factory stock, latest design. G was the latest until H came along and now the latest will be the revision for November. Before buying, you have to ask which revision it is. That's like reading posts on TMC where they say they have the latest software.

That cost seems excessive. I wonder if yoke is swappable with wheel, and if you could find someone to trade with on forum.

That's a good idea.

Using your airbag is completely safe, and that's what is used with the aftermarket yokes. I haven't heard any complaints about the Hansshow yokes.

I'm waiting for a quote from Tesla right now and was wondering if you went ahead with the change. If so, do you like it?
Did you figure out a way to get a lower cost option? Curious to know how this worked out for you.
