The airbag module's design includes central placement in the steering wheel hub, with a specifically shaped zone for airbag deployment during system activation. The arrangement of mounting points and the routing of electrical connectors comply with Mercedes' factory solutions, promoting precise installation and reducing the risk of installation errors.

The main benefits of using this part include:

• maintaining the vehicle's original safety concept,
• a cohesive black appearance matched to the Sprinter W907 interior,
• the ability to restore proper interaction with the horn system and steering wheel controls,
• compatibility with the original Mercedes electrical system.
