Now I have my baby, it's time to make her my own!

I have a few wants (driving lights, chrome bits, sat nav, ipod connector) but I think my priority is a new steering wheel. I love the 3 spoke one you see on quite a few minis (sorry don't know the exact product name!). I don't particularly need multi-function and the mini accessories brochure says it's about £200 I think. I currently have the standard leather wheel. Will I need a new airbag unit? This doubles the price of the new wheel! I take it mini will charge a small fortune for fitting too!

Any info and advise with the best/cheapest way to go about this would be very handy!

Thanks.

The airbag for a 2 spoke wheel is different from the airbag for a 3 spoke wheel. Speak to
site sponsor Woodmans (Chris) for prices but they will do a JCW wheel and airbag fitted
for about the same other dealers will charge for the standard 3 spoke parts only.
