197 steering on 182

[dani182]

it's finally on .... and I like it soooooo much! :cheers::race::clap:

 

[fez]

that and the dials looks amazing!

 

[jon_r]

Lovely!

Do the cruise control buttons work?

 

[Revels]

I didn't think it fitted, well that's been the general thought on previous threads.

Did it take a lot of work? Looks great.

 

[Needster]

Aaaaaah want!!

Did it fit ok?

 

[dani182]

all works but for the cruise I do a new "home made" connector because 197 is different from 182

installation is really easy, 1 hour of work

 

[Needster]

Home-made connector? Any details?

Everyone seems to make it out to be a big chore. You should've done a user guide pal. Looks mint!

 

[ForceIndia]

Does the airbag work?

 

[jon_r]

I just know I want it.

Someone back your 197 into a brick wall, I want your steering wheel.

 

[howie p]

wow, i need this!!!

 

[yellowbelly]

Very nice, bet that wasn't cheap though?

 

[seb]

good work! first of its kind i think.

 

[albert88]

nice!

 

[Plummer]

I've been looking into this.
Did you have to make connectors for the air bag?

 

[Tom@JMS]

Good work, we've got one in the workshop that needs put on a 1*2 at some point.

 

[fUbAr]

Details on the home made connector please?

Did you have to modify the steering plastic surround at all?

 

[Lee-182]

I need this to, this looks amazing!!!!

 

[Pearl_Black]

Nice one. Looks good

 

[Curtis!]

Looks awesome,

I don't think I can justify it in my car though.

 

[jenic]

Does the airbag work? Think you should get a guide up

 

[Dean.]

brilliant!
Def need to do a guide. again what everyone else is saying, does the airbag work?

 

[Daz.]

Airbags the important factor for me here!

 

[Curley]

We need more answers lol I'm definitely looking in to this now, its on the list.

 

[Dave..]

Do you see the airbag gone off?

Who knows if it works!

 

[Henry]

looks great. also interested, but guess wheels from scrap cars are going to be very rare and relatively expensive

does this mean that wheels from lesser Clio3s will also fit?

 

[Sumner]

That's looks sooo nice, shame I have just sold my mk3 wheel an hour or so ago.

 

[Christopher]

I prefer the RS Twingo wheel. That goes straight on!

 

[Henry]

hmm.. with an airbag connection?

 

[Jamie]

I have a 200 steering wheel to fit now so hoping it all goes on well.

I've also got some ph1 172 dials to fit. I take it you've had to do as I have? Cut the warning lights out which are not the same and refit with the ones which are. Well, that's what I've done.

 

[Christopher]

Ph1 clocks? Why?

 

[seb]

why not?

 

[Jamie]

Because they're white.

I would put lockwood dials on but I think they look a bit s**t.

 

[fUbAr]

They're a nice touch, the Ph1 clocks. White dials go faster iirc...

 

[ForceIndia]

Looks very nice, but pointless if the airbag doesn't work.

 

[Kirsten]

oo like very much , good job

 

[Christopher]

why not?

Because they're white.

I would put lockwood dials on but I think they look a bit s**t.

They're a nice touch, the Ph1 clocks. White dials go faster iirc...

They're manky to look at IMO. All little dots. Plus, the typeface is blue.

Then there's the fact your car will look iffy when you sell it on.

I hated them in my Ph1. Really dated. But that's just me.

 

[Jamie]

Yeah, well this set is custom adapted from a set of 172 cup dials and ph1 172 so I can always swap them back as my original Trophy ones are untouched.

 

[Christopher]

Ooh, pics?

 

[Jamie]

When they're finished aii. Looks the same as this chaps but without the CF surrond which is a nice touch btw.

 

[markiner]

Do you see the airbag gone off?

Who knows if it works!

How funny :lolup: who's going to test :dead:
