This is a rare multi-function M-Sport steering wheel, including the
clock spring (wiring thing with connectors) but no airbag. It works
with the same standard airbag as the non multi-function version of this
wheel, so it's a straight upgrade if you already have the non-MF
version of the wheel. The airbags are easy enough to find separately
too.
This style of wheel is quite common on later E38 and E39
models, but beware that most of them don't fit the E36, E31, E34 or earlier versions of the E38 and E39. The reason
being that BMW changed to a dual stage airbag on later cars, meaning
that the airbag won't work.. They also changed the design of the
steering wheel itself, moving the clock spring (wiring part) onto the
car rather than the rear of the steering wheel. It took me a while to
find this style of wheel in the single-stage airbag design that works
on the E36 (and E31), but I've since had a change of plans so it's
never been fitted to my car and still sits in the box that I got it in.
I'm
looking for £100 ono for it, plus £10 delivery or collection. Bargain
for a wheel that looks like new, yet will cost ~£400 from BMW!
Please bear in mind that there is no airbag included.
If you have the same shape of wheel (but the non-multifunction version)
then the airbag will swap right over. If not, you'll have to source one
seperately, which should be easy enough as there are plenty of
non-multifunction versions of this M-sport wheel around.
