steering wheels

Anyone know what other BMW steering wheels will physically fit, ignoring the electronics, just physically fit on the splinned column of an early 1989 e34?

I matched up some big washers behind the nut for a tight fit. Non airbag wheels need this with different spacing.

I was thinking of going mad and fitting an E46 multifunction, i can sort out the electrics, but what sort of fitting does it have?

if you had a 91 and up it would probably fit the column, they went from a 22mm nut in the early cars to a 18mm (i think) bolt, you could change to a later column if you wanted it bad enough

My wheel is getting badly worn through in one spot. Need a new one but with airbag.

Are there options to use different (i.e. newer) wheels on the 92 535?

I would prefer not to have the electronics as I wouldn't know what to do with them. I do however want to have an airbag...besides my ex-wife. ;-)

you may look at the 94-95 e34 wheel with it's smaller bag and blue/white rondel in the center, no useless buttons
