    Arrow Installing a sports steering wheel

    Seems pretty easy to some people but ive had a few mates call me up and say 'i cant put my steering wheel on nodg come help me' and has proven in the past that common mishaps occur when you get a noob behind the spanner.

    Pretty simpe should take around five minutes to put on a sports wheel and attach the horn.

    1.Drive your car onto concrete or a flat surface and make sure the wheels are dead straight.(important)
    2.On the standard wheel the horn simply pulls off revealing the wheels nut holding it onto the column. The nut is a 19mm the same as your wheel brace so use that to undo it but leaving it screwed on a few notches.
    3.Normally you need to use a mallet or hammer to shock the wheel off the coloumn from being wedged and can seem like they are 'welded' on.
    4.Obviously the nut is used to stop the wheel from smacking yourself in the face but after the wheel is freed remove the nut and throw away the old bus wheel.
    5.Get your boss kit and wheel and fit them to each other with the supplied bolts.
    6.Making sure you put the indicator canceler back to where it was when you took the old wheel off, attach the boss kit and wheel without the horn in the centre to the grooves in the column exactly to where the old one was.
    7.Do up the nut firmly
    8.Attach the positive and negative wires to the car and then the your horn.
    9.push the horn in and attach any other 'bulky' trims provided with the wheel
    10.Enjoy a new driving experience
