Default Steering Wheel

anyone know what car this is from, and if it will fit the Orion?

I'm sure it's probably from a Fiesta RST, and will probably not fit

It's from an RS1800 mate

The FRST one's had a grey coloured wheel, it's got an FRST centre cap

Not sure if it will fit, stavros is probably right

It's an RS1800 steering wheel with a RS Turbo centre and no it will not fit your Onion. The two bosses are completely different. IIRC the Mk3 Fiesta shares it's steering wheel boss with the Mk5 Escort

yeah, the steering wheel itself does look the same shape as the Mk5 one.

I've asked the guy for a photo of the fitment, but I'm pretty sure it's not gonna fit

I already have an S2 wheel on it but I don't like it. I'd like to try and keep the interior fitted with ford stuff, but I just don't like the older steering wheels much at all
