Problem fitting aftermarket steering wheel :(

[daddycool]

Help!!

Will this boss fit a Cally? I bought it ages ago and only now getting around to fitting it.

If it does, how?

If it doesn't, where can I get one that does ASAP? (TRAX is fast approaching!!)

Looks like you have it the right way round in the pic, so all you do is bolt the boss to the steering coloum and then bolt the steering wheel to the boss.

[Stupink]

yes it looks like it may.
take the wheel off the boss.. attatch boss to car as per normal wheel attatchment method.. IE huuuuuuge nut.. then re-attatch wheel to boss [img]/smile.gif[/img]
assuming theres not a huuuuge hole in the wheel you can get a socket etc into..

OK cheers [img]/smile.gif[/img]

Do I need to re-fit the large spring that was fitted behind the OE steering wheel?

What about the wiring for the horn? The original has a plastic donut containing a coil of wire to enable the wheel to turn without breaking the wires.

Also, the back of the boss (where the cut-out notch it that is supposed to cancel the indicators) is very 'heath-robinson'. Will this cancel the indicators correctly like the OE ring does? I don't want it to damage the actuator.

I was thinking of cutting away part of the boss (near where the notch out is) to make it more like the OE indicator cancelling ring. What do you think?

looks a lot different to aussie calibra boss kits. Here's mine.

That's also what mine looked like! That is correct for an airbag model!

Slip rings on the momo one I had. The boss was just like that one posted up by the Aussie bloke.
