Purpose and function of the component

The presented item is the central, sport steering wheel trim used in BMW 5 and 6 Series models of the E60, E61, E63, and E64 generations. It is a part from the Steering wheels and horn buttons category, responsible for the aesthetic finish of the central steering wheel area and the stable mounting of buttons and the airbag cover (depending on the vehicle configuration). Replacing the trim itself is a cost-effective solution – it allows you to retain the original steering wheel while removing signs of wear visible in the most exposed area.

Material and finish

The trim is covered in black leather, ensuring consistency with the factory finish of high-end BMW interiors. The leather upholstery guarantees a pleasant-to-touch, secure grip and resistance to typical operational stresses, such as frequent contact with hands or temperature changes in the cabin. The neutral black color facilitates integration with various dashboard and upholstery color variants, maintaining an elegant, sporty cockpit character.

Technical characteristics and installation

The item is a factory BMW component, designed as part of the sport steering wheel system. The design provides for installation in place of the original trim, using existing mounting points, which facilitates service and reduces the time required for replacement. The product has a dedicated OEM part number and interchangeable numbers, which allows for precise verification of compatibility with a specific vehicle configuration based on manufacturer catalogs.

Due to its factory origin, the trim retains the correct geometry and fit to the steering wheel rim, which is important both for safety and for proper alignment with other equipment elements (buttons, airbag, covers). The used condition of the part means that the item comes from disassembly but retains functional parameters allowing for further use after proper installation.

Benefits of using the original steering wheel trim

• Possibility to visually refresh the central part of the steering wheel without the need to replace the entire steering wheel.
• Consistent, leather finish matched to the character of premium BMW interiors.
• Factory fit for 5 and 6 Series E60, E61, E63, E64 models, with no modifications required.
• Savings compared to purchasing a new, complete steering wheel while maintaining the original specification.
