Steering wheel question

[Webby.]

I've never changed a steering wheel before, firstly if i fit a one that isn't oem that doesn't have airbags, is there any problems with mots? secondly will the 172/182 wheel fit a 1.2?
thanks

as long as the airbag light isnt lit on your dash then itll be fine with MOTs, you should be able to wire in a small 5ohm resistor to fool it into thinking there is still an airbag

Yeah i know about adding the resistor i just wanted to check that i wasn't going to fail an mot with it, as for the 172/182 steering being fitted? And if you can fit a 172/182 steering wheel, could you use the air bag or would it just become redundant like having a none oem?
