Hi mate, I have a tan leather coupe steering wheel on my D9 estate, got it so it matches the rest of the interior.
Straight swap, no problems.

Re: saloon and coupe leather steering wheels same?
Exec saloons and estates have leather steering wheels, (probablly GTX's & SE's too, possibly some others).
Coupes, (or at least posher ones), also have leather wheels, but I understand they're a little bit smaller.

it could be smaller but just worrying about fitting,thanks guys
Re: saloon and coupe leather steering wheels same?
10mm in diameter i'm led to believe is how much the coupe ones are smaller
I had a coupe one on my D8.5, so no issues
just found it obscured the symbols on the stalks, but I knew what was where, so didn't bother me

I didn't measure the size - didn't really think about it. I still have the D9 estate airbag in the Coupe wheel too.

No, I just meant as the diameter was smaller, the rim obscured the view of the symbols on the stalks
