2009poolesparky Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 What was the original steering wheel fitted to mk2 spits? Mine has a wooden one with 3 metal spokes, but I've seen some photos showing a 2 spoke black wheel. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thescrapman Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 That wooden one may be a dealer fit option.Looks a bit like a Les Leston.Have you got a picture?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Hammond Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 No no. It's not original. I'll swap it for an original one if you like... M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2009poolesparky Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 Well I am trying to put the car back to original condition. Mark do you have any photos you could send me please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Your car should have a std herald type steering wheel. https://www.google.co.uk/searc.....mp;bih=899&dpr=1The one fitted is worth ££££ and as Colin says, it is a proper "option" for the car. Much much nicer too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Hammond Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 If you're serious about originality, I do have a mint correct wheel for your car, I would swap plus cash your way if interested....Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2009poolesparky Posted December 20, 2015 Author Share Posted December 20, 2015 The car had a wooden gear knob too which matched the wheel, I swapped it back for the plastic ball, but I still have the wooden one. Mark if you can PM me some more details and pictures that would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
