Purpose and function in the steering system

The presented airbag module is a central part of the steering wheel assembly, responsible for interacting with the passive safety system and integrating with the horn button. Its design is tailored to the specific steering wheel geometry used in the Passat B7 and Golf VI, which ensures proper fitment with the airbag, steering wheel spokes, and column covers.

This type of solution ensures:

• stable mounting in the steering wheel hub,
• precise positioning relative to the horn button and trim elements.

Construction and fitment for the Volkswagen interior

The module is finished in black, allowing it to blend harmoniously with the typical interior trim of Volkswagen models from this generation. The shape of the housing is matched to the factory steering wheel, which helps maintain a consistent cockpit appearance and ergonomic access to all functions on the steering wheel.

Its original Volkswagen origin ensures compliance with factory standards for assembly, geometry, and surface finish, which is particularly important for post-accident repairs and restoring the vehicle to its pre-damage condition.

Condition, origin, and service application

• post-accident steering system repairs,
• replacing a damaged air module in an existing steering wheel,
• restoring full functionality of the horn button.

Thanks to the factory design, it can be used as a direct replacement for a worn or damaged part without the need to interfere with the steering wheel geometry or modify the mounts.

Benefits of choosing an original steering wheel module
