It depends on the wheel, tho alot of them these days will mount about anything. I'm just about to grab one for my del sol, and I'm looking more at a short NRG boss

now i got one but
the indicators wont turn off automatically and the horn wont work.

i noticed that the bottom is not flush with the metal piece in the steering column which may be causing the problem.

so i tried removing the kit and it is hella hard to get off! lol
i tried for a good half hour last night before i gave up

any tips? on how to get it off and how to fix the problem.

cheers.

there should be a little adaptor thing that comes with your boss kit. if you centre it correctly, it 'unclicks' the indicators. as for the horn, do you have wire attached? and is there a ground?

With the steering wheel atttached and the centre bolt inside the bosskit off,use the lower palms of your hands and kinda thump at 9 and 3 positions on th wheel

like a left right left right left right thudding motion,it will help dislodge it from the shaft then pull it up without wacking your face

Adapter? cos theres probably a 8mm gap between the bottom of of the boss kit and the gold plates of the steering column which i presume are suppose to touch to make the connection?

the momo horn has two plugs on the back. one plugs into the boss and the other i presume will have to be grounded correct?

i cant see any adapter. ill try take some pics tonight.

maybe that will help.

@EKVTIR-T
yeah ill give it a go tonight.
got home pretty late and couldnt be bothered wrestling with the wheel.
so ill give it another go tonight.

lol how such a simple mod could be so annoying

u use WD to help loosen it??

let it sit for 10 or so min then give it it a fed hits with the palm and it should come loose.

if worse comes to worse go to autobarn and buy a steering wheel puller.
