Plug-in nut — a genuine BMW part, number 32 30 1 096 840. The number stamped on the part is 32301096840; BMW's catalog files it under the short number 1096840. You will find it on our Steering shelf, under Steering column.

It fits every E46 body style (320i, 323i, 325i and 330i, 1999–2006), with the M52 or M54 engines — and the European-market versions.

BMW draws it on 13 diagrams, among them Sport st.whl.airbag w decorative covers (32_1172) and Sport st.whl.airbag-smart / decor.cover (32_1173). It weighs about 1 g (under 0.1 lb).

We have not had one on the shelf yet. Request it and we will tell you when one comes off a car.
