New steering wheel installed (pic)

Did you use your original Slip ring when you changed out the wheel?

Also - do you have the part # for the wheel?

Looks like a sweet mod. - JT

John,


Ignore the part number given here; that only applies 89-92/93. Look at the links for the whole story.

But yes it is a sweet mod. Any e36 wheel will fit, even the airbag ///M will have the smaller diameter and the thumb bumps. They can be rare though and i do like the simple look of the 3 spoke better anyway.



Here's one on fleaBay

This one pops right on. Even though the ad does not mention e34 fitment. No other parts needed.

If that black plastic tab on the back side breaks in shipment, all you'll lose is the turn signal return. It's a $15 part (maybe $30 i forgot).

Jon K's is from an e46 and i'm not sure if all the buttons the airbag or even the horn werk (horn probably). The airbag from an e36 ///M3 should be totally compatible........again, good luck finding one used.
