Steering Wheel Boss

Hi all,

Had a quick search, but didn't turn up anything deinitive.

Who has a steering wheel boss which self-cancels the indicators?

I'm looking at getting a Personal Neo-Grinta wheel, and would like to mate it to a boss that works!

Many thanks.

I have a Momo one that self cancels, got it from Demon Tweeks Direct on EBay

Thanks chap.

Do you have a link or a part number?

Alex, I tried a number of bosses, including two off ebay and the momo mentioned above.

The momo (whilst more expensive) was the only one I felt fitted properly and would be happy to use - based on the number of threads left showing that the central nut would tighten onto and the overall quality.

Miles,

Many thanks for your reply. I don't mind spending the money if it's good quality.

Just one more question if you don't mind: Did you also get the airbag light cancel 'kit' from DT?

I have a Momo boss kit (MK7733R I think) that cancels the indicators on my PFL. I think I paid £78(ish) delivered.

It comes with everything you need including the resistor to stop the airbag light staying on. Bear in mind that you may need to account for a horn button when buying a wheel. The instructions that are included are pretty poor imo.

Quite a simple job really and took me around an hour (and I'm rubbish with a spanner).

However you will need a different kind of boss for that wheel as the screw figments are positioned in a different place on the wheel... I think it's a nardi boss you will need. s:?: :?: s:?:

No, I just bought a 5p 3.3ohm resistor from Maplins s:)

Thanks all for the replies.

I will go with the Momo.

One last question!

Does anyone know the diameter of the standard steering wheel?

Trying to decide on a 330mm or a 350mm!

Standard · April 28, 2016, 17:35

It is 350mm for the standard wheel.

Don't forget if you want that particular wheel that you pictures you will need a different boss as the fitment is less common.

Thank you for that.

You can get a PCD adapter to allow fitment of Personal/Nardi wheels to momo bosses:

I'll go for the 330mm then.
