    Yes, but if using the VP shroud, you will have approx 25mm gap between it and the steering wheel.

    I've got a non-airbag VS one on the VN wagz and it passed it's roady in VIC with the gap between wheel & shroud fine

    Indicators cancel correctly and horn works fine so should be all good
    If ignorance is bliss why aren't there more happy people around ?

    When I fitted the VR wheel to the 91 Calais the indicator failed at first and on closer inspection the indicator unit was not plugged into the slot properly.

    Basiclly the same units (VN, VP, VR) with different stalk so they should work. Pull the indicator out again and make sure it's all the way home properly and both locators are in the slots.

    Most VN VP steering wheels need drilling and glueing to firm them up. I've done 3 now and all are still in daily action

    Basiclly you drill out the foam from behind in 4 or 5 spots and put a good quality glue in to it. I use black bostic body moulding glue (side door bump moulds). Works a treat.

    Only thing to wach out for is that you dont rip the outer casing of the wheel when removing the foam. And dont go silly with the glue (plenty of rags for clean up) the neater the finish the less it looks like it's been fiddled with.

    When set (24 hours) I trim with a very sharp blade or light sand with 120 grit.

    There is a thread on the glueing a wheel up - see how you go with a search as it has may have some photos. I've got some how to photos some place as well.
