Product Details

This Sparco steering wheel hub is designed to fit your 1978-1983 BMW 320i, as well as select 5 Series models from the late 70s and early 80s. If you're looking to swap out your factory steering wheel for an aftermarket one, a hub adapter like this is a necessary component. It bridges the gap between the steering column and your new wheel, ensuring proper fitment and allowing your horn and turn signals to function correctly.

Sparco makes this hub from well-built aluminum, which is strong enough for the job without adding unnecessary weight.

When installing an aftermarket steering wheel, always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for both the wheel and the hub adapter to ensure everything is connected safely and correctly. This hub is a solid option for anyone wanting to personalize their classic BMW interior.
