Abstract: A method of manufacturing a motor car steering wheel with an external shell made of carbon fibers begins with preparing a pile of sheet materials which is then hot molded to yield respective half-shells with a shape corresponding to that of respective halves of the steering wheel being manufactured. Next comes mechanical flattening of the front surfaces of the two half-shells, followed by mounting of the two half-shells above and under a steering wheel body formed by a metallic core covered by resin. The steering wheel body has lateral profile members which act as fixing supports for the two half-shells.

Abstract: A cover for a parking brake has a tubular handle body that is arranged coaxial to a lever of the parking brake and is fixable to it by fastening dowels that are positioned at a back end. A finishing back ring nut is inserted onto the back end of the handle body. An adapter with an external shape and size equal to the internal ones of the handle body and an internal hole with a shape and size varying with the external shape and size of the brake lever. A fore finishing ring nut is inserted onto the adapter.

Abstract: A steering wheel is provided with an airbag. The steering wheel has a central part for connection to a steering wheel attachment and a cavity for housing a module. The module includes an airbag and a horn. The steering wheel has an outer ring and a plurality of substantially radial spokes connecting the outer ring to the central part of the steering wheel. The spokes are covered with a first metal sheet integral therewith so as to give the steering wheel a sporting appearance.

Abstract: A steering wheel is provided with an airbag. The steering wheel has a central part for connection to a steering wheel attachment, having a cavity for housing a module comprising the airbag safety device and a horn, an outer ring and a plurality of substantially radial spokes connecting the outer ring to the central part of the steering wheel. Around module there is provided a metal peripheral part fixed to the plurality of spokes by means of connecting means so as to give the steering wheel a sporting appearance.

Abstract: A motor vehicle steering wheel is provided with an airbag. The steering wheel has a central part for connection to a steering wheel attachment, having a cavity for housing a module comprising an airbag, an outer ring and a plurality of substantially radial spokes connecting the outer ring to the central part of the steering wheel. The module is provided with a peripheral metal part overlapping spokes so as to give the steering wheel a sporting appearance.
