Fitting mk3 steering onto mk2

[Wests Renault]

I know plenty of people have fitted the mk3 steering wheel onto the mk2's but just want to know whether it is a straight forward swap or whether the wiring need to be altered for the airbag and horn?

Just the CC wires that need altering, which is fairly simple to do

So i could go out and buy a 197/200 wheels and put it straight into my car? I have no CC so no wires

Yeh, it doesn't feel right at first, pas doesn't auto return but after some miles it loosens up.

How come it dont auto return?

No idea, its annoying though. But it does loosen up and start working properly after a while.

I never had it on long enough for it to loosen up, but a certain highly regarded specialist on here said they are all stiff to start with but soon loosen up, and the guy who has mine confirmed this.

i think i read somewher on here that it catches slightly on the plastics so that might be why...

it won't damage the steering wheel though will it?

 

[jenic]

Couldn't confidently say, something must be wearing away when it loosens up, everyone else seems happy though

How much is a 197/200 wheel with cc?
