    HELP - Name of Rubber Piece Around Steering Column - HELP

    Hey guys,

    In the image below I have circled in red the piece I am trying to find. Its just the rubber piece around the column and I am simply looking to purchase one, or at least find the technical name of the piece so I could purchase a new one. If you have one I will buy it from you. Or if you could post a link to a location or site I could buy one that would be great. If all you know is the name of the piece please post that below.

    (Its a 1991 BMW 325iX with airbag)

    I'm pretty sure that's just upper steering column trim. Here's a diagram:

    It looks like they include it as part of the steering wheel itself, which is odd.

      Not a part of the trim, it is made of rubber and is indeed a part of the wheel but can be separated. I remember it from when i pulled my airbag wheel off the car. There are a lot of them at the bone yards but none of the cars have keys and wheel lock is engaged so worthless...
