Jozinobi Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hey StevieI took a different route and got a starlet specific Boss Kit from Japan intended for cars with airbag steering wheels as the inside is larger due to space for the airbag etc (airbag is removed of course) and allows the horn to be hooked up inside. Expensive and a long wait but you get what you pay and wait for!Here's some pics of my Bride 320mm replica steering wheel, I have a snap off boss kit installed too which brings the wheel closer to the driver and you can take it off for security reasons.Once you mess about with changing the wheel, you have to go and get the steering re-aligned as chances are you will upset the balance when removing everything. Always disconnect the battery when working on this.Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steviet Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 cheers joz,thanks for your help mateWhat did you pay for the boss kit and snap off wheel if you dont mind me askin? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jozinobi Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hey StevieApprox £100 for the bosskit from yahoo auctions, around £35 for the steering wheel and £40 for the snap off boss both off ebay usa.Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steviet Posted February 11, 2008 Author Share Posted February 11, 2008 Nice one cheers joz,ill check out ebay usa now then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jozinobi Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Most of it is good kit for what you pay, Im happy thats for sure. There are cheaper kits out there but the one I got lets you do it all which means you can wire the horn easier and it fits better for airbag starlets.If you want any opinions throw some links up here, but at the end of the day get what looks good to you.Any 6 stud steering wheel will fit your boss kit once you get one as its such a common fitment, so all your momo, sparco and universal sports wheels will fit, ebay uk would have some too, shop around mate. Happy hunting!Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
