Purpose and function in the steering system

The presented airbag module is a component mounted centrally in the steering wheel on the driver's side in Mercedes C117 series models. It is responsible for proper cooperation with the vehicle's passive safety system and integration with the horn button, serving as a key component of the entire steering wheel assembly.

The element was designed as an original part, which ensures proper fit to the steering wheel structure, appropriate mounting geometry, and correct positioning relative to the steering column and other interior components.

Appearance, color scheme, and interior fit

The black color of the module allows for aesthetic integration into most factory interior configurations of the C117 series, where dark, subdued finishes dominate. As a result, replacing a damaged element does not disrupt the stylistic consistency of the cockpit, and the steering wheel retains a uniform, orderly appearance.

The original surface finish is adapted for intensive use, and the module's design allows for precise fitting with the steering wheel rim and column covers, which reduces the risk of unwanted play or unsightly gaps.

Benefits of using an original module

• Factory fit for the C117 series steering wheel without the need for modifications.
• Consistent black color, making it easy to maintain a uniform interior style.
• Integration with the passive safety system and horn button.
• Possibility of technical replacement of a damaged module without interfering with the steering wheel structure.
