Default Airbag steering wheel and Monte owners... quick question

Being a geek again

Is the steering wheel unique aswell to the Monte? as its an airbag wheel with perferated sections either side

Like mine:-



Whats yours like?
Adamski just showed my his small turbo (lux with cloth) and his steering wheel was different to mine.


Cheers guys

i think..that the airbag itself is most likely not unique to the escos..if you have an escort from that same year...the airbag vil be alike...at leat from some kind of si sport..or something.
but i know you are not after maybe"s...hehe..you wanna know i guess

Might have been the same shape but did they have the perferated leather sides? My Mk6 Escort Cabrio didn't.

I refuse to accept any difference untill I see photo evidence
