Whats the connector thing behind the steering wheel called, the one on air bag models that keeps power at the horn and air bag through all angles of the steering wheel?
It's about 5" diameter, with a green inner part and is secured onto the steering wheel, if anyone has had the wheel off previously they will know.
My explanation skills are gash at best sorry, someone help...
