Leather steering wheel!

[jammydodger]

Anyone know if an sri steering wheel in leather will do a straight swop over for an exclusiv model, is the air bag the same fitment. has anyone bought a leather wheel from the stealers? if so how much

your looking at £250+ from a dealer iirc and thats w/o airbag

your better off waiting for one to pop up on ebay or having a look round the salvage yards.

but in answer to your question, if yours is a 3 spoke then yes should be a stright swap, and you can use your existing airbag.

Make sure it's from a facelift & you should be fine, astra/zafira/vectra all the same, I got an Astra VXR steering wheel off e-bay & it was a straight swap for the one on my Deisgn, £40 bargain & it feels superb

Would this be the same thing guys, just with Opel badging and the extra paddle things...?

Looks the same, I assume the audio controls would swap over if you didn't have a use for the paddles

Cool - even though my car is a pre-faceclift, it appears to be some strange hybrid with the facelift steering wheel controls on it...

Big fan of the opel steering wheel with the extra paddles, nice to wire nitrous upto me thinks

Yes, because you need Nitrous in a 2.8 Turbo... lol
