Size of Airbag Star on Flat Bottom Steering Wheel?
Can someone with a G63 tell me what the diameter of the star on their airbag is? Or if someone has a flat bottom steering wheel on their G550 they can measure the star on their airbag. I have the round one steering wheel in my G550 but since the airbag is different on the flat bottom ones I wonder if the star is the same; it is 57mm on mine.

If it helps the one on my round G550 wheel is 57mm so is the other one smaller or larger, or the same? I am not sure why they use so many different sizes!

Perfect, thanks very much. If I get a new flat bottom steering wheel/airbag I can use the Black star and leather background on the different airbag:

Do you know of any options available to replace the plastic airbag cover with alcantara or leather?
