Question Which slip ring (?) for a GC8, 1998

Is this part called "slip ring"?





I'm looking for this part. Got a 1998 GC8 with the Momo steering wheel.

Can anybody please tell me the part number of it and what other models would also fit?

Thanks!

Clockspring I'd agree with that. Also heard it called a squib. Might have one in garage.

Are you looking to sell Andy? Or you looking to change steering wheel? As I've had experience in this area.
