offcourse i got the airbag bought it on ebay for £65 complete (MERCEDES C & E CLASS W202 W210 SPORT STEERING WHEEL - eBay (item 270720477500 end time Mar-21-11 10:55:53 PDT)) it was worn so i had to use Buffalo Leather Steering Wheel Repair Kit on the leather but now it looks like new so if it is just plug&play it was a bargain i think

Make sure you disconnect the battery before you remove the airbag and get another person to hold the steering wheel before you remove the nut from the centre, don't rely on the steering lock to work against in case you break it.
