Mil-Keith Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 I’ve got myself an after market Steering wheel lined up as a purchase from my brother, I just need to find out how I would install it in my Lupo before buying it? Can anyone suggest a good boss to use or something? First photo is front, second is rear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weslangdon Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 You need a boss kit to fit it to, [plenty on ebay] then you can bolt it in place of the existing wheel, there are YouTube vids of how to take the old one off, bear in mind you lose your airbag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR5V Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Wood rim wheel is a brave choice. Never seen a 5 bolt wheel. The majority of aftermarket wheels tend to be 6 bolt. very likely you are going to struggle for a boss, probably brand specific or you will have to re-drill a 6 hole boss - but that is potentially weakening the boss.

I know mate, but why not! And yeah that’s what I was finding difficult about it, the fact it has 5 holes. I think re-drilling is going to have to be the way forward, will most-likely drill holes in the wheel. Can’t seem to find a 5 hole boss!

Sausage Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Why not? When you need it most you wont have an air bag just nice splintery flesh shredding shards of wood to greet your wrists, face, throat and chest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
