changing the steering wheel

Might seem a silly question ,,,but,,,how difficult is it to replace the steering wheel s:?: :?: s:?: the main worry I have is disconnecting the air bag s:roll: :roll: s:roll:

dont worry Alan its a really simple job. 2 torx bit screws and a simple plug and it all comes off, took me about 2 minutes to dissasemble Marks one. Hardest part is actually removeing the steering wheel and not giving yourself a black eye but Seans idea works a treat. Use a simple pillow s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

Hardest part is the wireing for the horn after, but now we know the secret to it, that parts easy too s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

I think you're a silver aren't you Phil?

In which case, you probably won't be interested in this, but a heads up to anyone else with 72 quid to spend.

Personally, I'd get the existing wheel re-covered to taste but this is a quick solution for someone.

I was thinking about getting that done, any idea how much it would be?

I've got a brown/tan leather Interior, would be great if the wheel it matched s:D
