The component is integrated into the sport steering wheel's design, providing convenient access to buttons and consistency with the factory BMW control layout.

By using an original module from the BMW OE range, proper fitment with the steering column, wiring harness, and other control elements in the cabin is ensured. This is particularly important when replacing parts in vehicles equipped with the sport steering wheel variant, where the button layout and geometry differ from standard versions.
