    hey again !!!!

    i thought i might upgrade the steering wheel as it seems it change the interior of a car quite nicely

    same wheel diff colors , and a boss kit to go with it 250 nz dollars all up

    info-This is the real thing - Hand stitched MOMO leather / alcantara [suede] steering wheel! 350mm -perfect!

    also looking at some other wheels but will post them up later, im mainly focused on this model because of the simpleness off it and no overkill

    ok this is the 1st option

    The blue one will look really weird if you dont have other blue things.

    The seats are only slightly blue, and theres more black anyway. $250 NZ = ? Sounds expensive, mine was second hand, but stil in mint condition.

    Yea, I agree with MAfix, make sure you get a good quality collapsible one.

    Is this even gonna be legal?

    If its Momo, it should be better than most! Im no expert on this, but im just saying, the boss kit should be collapsible, its a legality thing, but also a safety thing in case you get into an accident...

    Neither of these wheels have padded centers, making them less safe than the factory item in an accident too, but they will be great quality, and the grey and black one looks awesum.

    By the way Sprey, what sorta condition is your factory wheel in?

    Because il buy it off you man....

    Seriously, PM me.

    I have a spair stock steering wheel Dan, which part do you need most, the horn part or the actual steering wheel?
     
  15. dan1_721

    dan1_721 Guest

    Sprey, i dont mind bout the center part, as long as its there and is tidy. If the leather is in good condition, il give you 50 dollars NZ to send it to me. If your interested, send me a pic.

    Ant, you would have the series 1 non leather wheel. I want a series 2 wheel, I have a leather one since my car was a laters series 1, but it is all burnt at the top. Thanks for the offer though

    whoa dude you can have it for free long as you pay shipping haha ,

    but thats if i change it .

    dan1_721 Guest

    The money is an incentive, i guess it could be part of the cost of your new one.

    Il take it for free though if you want lol. I just want dibs on it if you change it.

    You dont have cruise control do you? I dont, im figuring you dont since your changing the wheel, and you dont have it in your engine bay lol.

    Anyway, get a new one and give me your old one!

    You guys have SAAS over there?

    lol yeah we get saas which is what my gearstick boot thing is , just soeled to the metal thing cheapy it didnt fit so i stretched it , it is sitting there pretty roughly

    and yeah nah i dont have cruise control tho it would be handy for cruising to work down the long road at 50 kmh !

    I bought a saas gear boot, then realised what an ST162s like. Mine just came in the mail today, from America. Its basically the same as the stock one, just black.
