Firewall Steering Shaft Plate - E30 w/ Airbag

Upgrading to an E36 steering rack in a late-model, airbag-equipped E30 often requires modifying the firewall for clearance. In most cases, the bottom right corner of the steering column opening needs to be trimmed to allow the rack and shaft to pass through cleanly.

Our Firewall Steering Column Plate is a bolt-in solution that simplifies that process. Designed specifically for airbag-equipped E30s running an E36 rack, this plate provides the necessary clearance without the trial-and-error of hand-modifying the firewall.

Precision cut from .125" aluminum, the plate installs cleanly and saves time during rack swaps—especially useful when you want a clean result.

• Designed for E36 steering rack swaps into late-model E30s

• Eliminates the need for manual firewall trimming
• Precision cut from .125" aluminum
• Bolt-in design for straightforward installation
