no offence, just my opinion...

1. steering wheel without airbag are most likely from accident car, structure may damaged without noticeable mark
2. airbags use explosive powder to operate, improper install may cause sudden fire of airbag
3. airbag can't be tested, it can't protect you if it doesn't work in accident

for me, i will only change the safety component with factory parts

happy modding!

Hard to say about point 1.... Some people just buy the wheel from BMW as upgrade and reason why they dont sell with airbag is because it is illegal to ship via air!

Agree with point 2...but point 3, even if ur car is brand new, u cannot test the airbag....u just assume it all works....

With all mods there is risk...
