ph1 172 steering wheel fix

[zakk1975]

Ok i'am about to buy a ph1 clio 172 again

i realy love the ph1 clio 172 but there was a major f--k up in practical design regarding the steering wheel

the first time i had a clio 172 ph1 the steering wheel was replaced under warranty..

but 7yrs on i dont think thats possible


has anyone come up with a good solution to the the horrible steering wheel

will a megane sport steering wheel fit or a ph2 clio 172 sport steering whee fit

or does anyone know of a company that can re trim in leather...

i 'am sure a group buy would be a great idea

I'm interested. Aftermarket race style one would do though. No airbag but you can always blow a balloon up and stick it on.

Anyone suggest a good after market one off ebay plus boss. Some are quite cheap! Would like a boss kit that brings wheel a little closer.

Which boss would extend that wheel cause I'd like to sit a bit further back since I have long legs but my arms don't reach lol

Thats what i have.... i would say it sticks out about 1"-2" inch's more than standard....but i am not sure if there are boss's that could be more extendable... I am a short a*se so i dont have the same problem as you..
