Looking for a part number....

[hobbygodz]

Hello forum members. I am seeking the part number for a VE HSV Clubsport steering wheel. (As fitted to R8 E series vehicles.)
The wheel / part number I am looking for is for the HSV, not the HBD / HSVi / Walkinshaw wheel.
I am thinking they are rare and probably now only available from wreckers?
Alternatively, I realise "comfort" is an individual thing, but can anybody comment regards a comparison of the HSV and the (very much available) Walky wheel?
Cheers all, Brad.

Cant help with a part number, or comparisons with a 'Walky' wheel, but the steering wheel on my E3 Maloo is the most 'comfortable' factory wheel I've ever had my hands on.

Thank-you for your reply.
An E3 Clubby sedan is where I tried this wheel and I have desired one for my SSV Walky ute ever since. Mine has the standard SSV wheel and I can only describe it as shite...
Enjoy your Maloo mate, Cheers & thanks.

Have you enquired with a HSV dealer about buying a wheel?
If they ask for a VIN, let me know. I'll pm my Maloo VIN.

Thanks for the link, nice wheel, but that ain't the one.
The one I'm after looks like this - https://www.caradvice.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/perfect-steering-wheel.JPG

Salvage Auto should have them

Thank-you for the tip. I have called salvage a few times over the last couple of months.
Seem to always just miss out. Same with the guy at Currumbin. (story of my life eh, lol). Will call them again today to check.
Cheers, Brad.
