Euro spec 528i e39 steering wheel.
I found a msport 3 spoke steering wheel however the person is in England.
He has a 528i single stage steering wheel. I have a 540i single stage steering wheel. Sounds easy and bolt on BUT does anyone know if its built differently?? Meaning steering wheel offsets and the splines?? |

This is easy to find out if you're confused that a RHD vehicle may have a totally different BMW part nbr and set up versus your LHD e39....use the part database.
![]() If you use a site like http://realoem.com/bmw/select.do and look up the 3-spoke steering wheel for you car...then copy and paste the BMW 11 digit part nbr in the part nbr search box (click on the USA & EURO boxes) and search for ALL BMW models that can use that same part...you'll get a list of all compatible models. And it will list USA & Euro models if you clicked on the boxes to search both sides of the part database.

If the build date of both vehicles are before '99 then its a single stage bag and will work

I was just wondering about euro spec to USA spec. If the steering wheel had a different wheel angle.
Yes they are BOTH single stage systems. |
