how do you run the wiring so thatyou can still go lock to lock?


needs to look neat and tidy, i have seen some use the telephone style coiled wire, dont want this as it looks so bad imo

where is your horn switch if you have on, i think mk3 are on the stalks arnt they

if so use a mk4 steering wheel boss, and from a std wheel there is a round plastic bit that has 2 brass rings which clip into the sterering wheel boss, then use the bushes that clip onto the coloum but use the wires for what ever you want the buttoms to do

yeah good point, as id imagine there would be more than 2 wires now looking at it lol

problem is after a a while the wires will get angled up and snap, so you need a ring of some sort if you want it all hidden
