Anyone out there know if a steering wheel off of an e30 would fit the e12? Thanks

If I recall correctly, e30s are the fine-splined wheel, and e12s have a coarse spline, so I think the answer to that is no.

Correct. E28's and E24's thru 85 will work with a bit of adapting, E23's will bolt up but leave the wheel too far from the turn signal/WW switches. Actually E24's thru 82 are E12 based and are a straight swap, 83-85 require a bit of work.
