Finally got round to fitting the wheel and new bag last night and even got the horn workin . however for now I will be using the lambo emblem to slow my face down in the event of a front on

Also took the time to take my old car kit out cos it was gash...........was a nightmare getting the unit back in, but after a lot of skint knuckles it went in

Lambo brakes, Lambo steering wheel... it's like you are creating a complete Lambo wagon!

Just no lambo doors Ya Hear?

The wheel fits well with the car, just needs the Vdub badge to get three thumbs up from me.

Defo no lambo doors.......got better taste than that I hope Just another thing to be different and the wheel came up brand new from a friend of a friend and then I managed to pick up the airbag from a chap in LA. Just in time for the first VW show of the season over here on Sunday

The spline is the same on the column and the horn connectors are the same. I'm getting a specialist company to look at the two airbag looms so I know it will work as the new bag is a two stage airbag so need to make sure it's wired up to the big explosive.....just in case
