Replacing Split Horn Button's

m_p_rogers

Anybody know if or how you change the horn button's on the centre airbag section of the steering wheel, mine has split and is a real pain. Would rather just changed the buttons for £5 off ebay than changing the whole airbag unit.

Car is an astra mk4, but assume the steering wheel is common across the model range.

The horn pads are integral to the airbag unit.

You can get an new cover for the airbag. Just need to be careful not to use any sharp objects when doing the swap.
It's just held on by lots of clips around the outside edge.
It's probably easier to just buy another airbag with the cover in good condition and swap the whole unit over.

I never knew that then. That should save a few £££'s.

when you get an airbag make sure you get the right one,non steering wheel control airbags wont fit a steering wheel with steering wheel controls
