I hated the original steering wheel in the car so set about looking for a replacement...

I managed to get a Mk2 FRS steering wheel at a decent price which was brand new...had blue stitching and the RS logo was also in blue...snapped that up right away!

NOT a straight forward fit by ANY means! A right ball ache to be honest!

DEFINITELY an improvement though! The offset of the wheel is completely different to...where the old steering wheel was a fingers length away from the stalks...this is probably half an inch to an inch further away...

The airbag cover was also a brand new unit...so all in all..its a BRAND new FRS MK2 steering wheel on the car!
