my works steering

hi mickey,

this is kc boey from SG and i ordered a 3 spoke works steering along with other stuff from u a month back... suddenly crossed my mind if the steering i've ordered will fit my 03 one as my current ride is a 2 spoke wheel... i've yet to fit it as the air bag unit is still not available...

also, if the steering i've ordered is correct, will a R56 airbag unit be able to fit onto the works steering or must it be a R53 3 spoke airbag unit?

It will fit, and you will need an R53 airbag (different from R56).

See this very good writeup: JCW Steering Wheel How-To
Thanks for this post from:
