BMW M Sport Steering Wheel Airbag | F20 F30 F31 F34 Round SRS Spares

Description

Restore the absolute safety compliance, structural restraint protection, and flawless cockpit aesthetics of your sports-package vehicle with this premium BMW M Sport Steering Wheel Airbag Module (Driver-Side Supplemental Restraint System [$SRS$] Airbag). Sourced and verified across BMW’s popular F-series performance lines, this genuine factory round airbag module is the definitive replacement for deployed systems, cracked horn covers, or vehicles undergoing a complete factory M Sport steering wheel conversion.

This specific round airbag assembly is engineered exclusively to complement the iconic three-spoke M Sport and M-Tech leather steering wheels. Unlike the basic square or trapezoidal airbag modules found on standard or Luxury line steering wheels, this module features a compact, spherical architecture that locks flush into the center core of the sports wheel framework. It natively integrates with the driver-side safety columns of the 1 Series (F20 Hatchback), 3 Series (F30 Sedan / F31 Estate), and 3 Series Gran Turismo (F34 GT).

The driver’s airbag operates as your primary line of defense in a frontal or offset vehicle collision. Triggered by immediate digital pulse metrics from your vehicle’s peripheral impact sensors, the internal solid-propellant inflator activates within milliseconds—deploying a high-strength nylon cushion to protect the driver’s head and chest from striking the steering column structure.

Because these units are strictly single-use safety items, any prior accident deployment requires a complete replacement of the core module, the clockspring wire harness, and the deployment safety sensors. Furthermore, replacing a damaged or deployed unit with this genuine factory module ensures that your central safety computer ($SRS/Airbag\ ECU$) reads the correct electrical loop resistance, instantly clearing dashboard warning indicators and ensuring the rest of your vehicle’s safety curtains remain operational.

Manufactured with a premium, UV-stabilized impact-resistant outer cover plate, this module features the iconic embossed BMW center emblem and dual-stage rear electrical gas generators. Trust TP German Auto Spares for fully verified, workshop-inspected BMW safety electronics, M Sport cabin upgrades, impact modules, and interior mechanical spares that keep your premium ride safe on South African roads.
