Now, I'm using std steering wheel of W124 as per attached picture. I would like to know what model and year made that can be used with my W124 and less diameter than std wheel. W210 ?? W202 ?? ,etc.

Not sure that you can find a factory steering wheel that has the air bag safety feature in a smaller diameter.. Jim

Sportline steering wheel. is a smaller diameter than stock W124. Looks better than stock if you ask me. You could also get a Sportline steering wheel off of a C36 or C43 W202 AMG. Those have the two tone wheels though, but same size as Sportline. The 500E also uses Sportline.

bsmuwk, thanks for your advice. Could the contact ring of w124 be interchanged with sportline steering wheel w202 ?

Should steering wheel W202 as per attached picture be smaller than stock wheel W124 ?

I don't know the size of that steering wheel.

And yes, the contact ring would have to be switched out with that from a W124 if you are switching to a W202 steering wheel.

Does any body know the diameter of contact ring W124 be the same size as contact ring of W203? If yes, we could replace contact ring W124 on W203 and use steering wheel of W203 only 2 functions, airbag and horn. Is it possible ???
