 Posted: Thu May 05, 2011 6:21 pm Post subject: What kind of steering wheel is this? |
 |
|
I have a 67 bug and just got the new interior finished on it and i think this steering wheel would look cool with it. Could someone tell me what kind it is and what would i need to do to convert to it from the original. Also I am open to any suggestions of steering wheels you guys like. Thanks

Its some kind of custom billet wheel. Hard to really say who makes it. Maybe someone on here will know or recognize it. Who knows, maybe the person who owns that Bug is on here...
You wont need much to convert from stock to a custom/aftermarket wheel. There are wheel adapters that allow you to run different wheels.

For pointing out the obvious? I would hope the moderators of this great site aren't so power hungry as to ban someone for a sarcastic response to an unnecessary comment... |

No, my comment was just a funny lol comment. The mods can roll with the punches. Lighten up a little. |
