Purpose and function in the vehicle

The presented airbag is a central element of the passive safety system in the steering wheel area. Mounted in the steering wheel hub on the driver's side, it works with the SRS control module and collision sensors, responsible for the rapid deployment of the airbag in the event of a collision. Using an original component allows for maintaining compliance with the factory operating parameters of the system, which is important for both safety and correct diagnostics.

Design and fitment for VW Polo 4 9N

The airbag has been designed specifically for the geometry of the steering wheel used in the Volkswagen Polo 4 9N, which ensures proper fitment with the rim, buttons, and covers. The airbag housing is prepared to work with the factory mounting and electrical harness, which facilitates installation and limits the need for modifications. Thanks to this, the element can be used as a replacement for a damaged airbag in the process of post-accident repair or when replacing the complete steering wheel.

Condition, origin, and technical aspects

The airbag comes from the Volkswagen range, which means maintaining the original design and compliance with the manufacturer's factory standards. As a used item, it is intended primarily for service applications in vehicles where it is required to restore the complete safety system after the SRS system has been triggered. Before installation, it is recommended to verify compatibility with the specific vehicle equipment version and perform diagnostics of the airbag system.

Benefits of using an original driver airbag

• Factory fitment for the VW Polo 4 9N steering wheel, with no need for mounting modifications.
• Consistency with the vehicle's SRS system, facilitating diagnostics and error clearing.
• Possibility of economical repair of the steering wheel area while maintaining the original design.
• A solution dedicated to a specific model, not a universal replacement.
