minifacelift steering wheel size vs vectra wheel
« on: 14 May 2009, 09:47:07 »

hi all. i have been offered a nice carbon finish vectra steering wheel from a car a similar age to my minifacelift elite (1997). i wondered if the steering wheel from a vectra is the same size as a steering wheel from an omega, or is it smaller and won't fit properly?

so would i have any issues re airbag etc? i've not removed a steering wheel before, so assuming they are airbag > airbag do i need to get it reset or anything? or is it just a clip on clip off affair?!

If you say they share the same airbag I believe you, they look different though  :-/  :-/  :-/  :-/
