Default will it fit

seen a steering boss on ebay listed to fit a momo wheel to a sierra

did a quick check on another site and it is listed as a scorpio steering boss

is this still suitable for a sierra 4x4 steering column

was gonna go for this as its cheaper, than paying £40 for a new one

anyone shine any light

many thanks

the granada wheel DOES fit the seirra BUT it's a bit more complicated than that

the granada uses a lug on the boss to cancel the indicators so this would need to the ground off, not a difficult job in itself

the other porblem occours with the fitment of the wheel to the column, it sits between a quater and half an inch further out than the normal wheel does

you would also have to transfer over the sierra's indicator canelation stuff but you will ALSO need the little plastic spigot ring that goes in the granada column

simple enough but not that straightforward

there is a little plastic ring that turns them off on the actual shaft of the column
on the granada there is a lump on the steering wheel just on the inside of the cowling

pics i may be able to get when i don't have to do a 15 hour day at work
