e46 steering wheel

[benny boy]

hi guys does anybody know if the e46 steering wheel will fit an e36 on a 95

it will but you will not have the airbag function or the horn. PM Shak. He did this on his earlier e36. He relocated the horn function to a separate button on the dash no airbag but that didn't bother him :)

why will i lose air bag and horn my e36 air bag has a air bag horn in center of wheel [hmm

because the wiring is incompatible. The later e46 wheels have a 2 stage deployment which is linked in with the crash zones on the car (or so I've been told), e36's didn't have this
