Got an aftermarket steering wheel in your Mini? Show it off here.

This is my new one I got a couple days ago:





Horn Button:

 

This is a Moto-Lita from Cooper past...

 

Very cool interior!!

 

Omg... thats exactly how im doing mine!

But RHD

 

here's mine

 

How do y'all take pictures of your interior like that?

 

Not a very good shot but here it is

 

wide angle lens

 

Fisheye lens on my shot plus be a midget so you can take it from the back seat.

 

I think boister has a sunroof through which he can peer with his wide angle hence the high perspective.

 

Oh ok. I can fit in my backseat...i just can't get out...

 

MOMO!


yea baby....

 

ANOTHER ONE I LOVE!!!!!

AND BOISTERS!!! OMG THESE ARE SOOOO BEUTIFUL!!!!

 

Here is the factory airbag wheel


and here is my custom built Moto-lita

 

TTI,

That's hot! I want one.

 

How hard is it to install the steering wheel. I was reading the directions and it said disconnect the battery and stuff and you have to have a steering wheel puller???

 

Disconnect the battery and wait aroudn 15 minutes

remove the two screws/bolts holding the airbag on

care with the airbag, you don't want to be infront of it incase it fires

lift the airbag out and disconnect the electrical connectors

remove the steering wheel as you would a normal Mini steering wheel
(you don't need a steering wheel puller)

 

I'mm pretty sure BB doesn't have an airbag...........

I have a steering wheel puller when you're ready to install it, but most times you can get it off without one, just loosen the nut to the end of the shaft (leave the nut on so you don't damage the threads) then while pulling it upwards give the end of the shaft a pretty good whack with a hammer. They usually slide right off.

Come to think of it, I think my classic was splined, it slid right off once the nut was loose...........

We can do it when we do your rear brakes, if you want...........

 

That sounds good Dave. I'm free tomorrow... My brake lights aren't working either so that means I can't drive her around :(

 

Where do you all find the center caps for your wheels?

 

That's a good question... The Mountneys that I see on the web have really cheapo-looking mountney "M" horn buttons. Aren't there some nice ones that say Austin, Morris, Mini, etc.?

 

I've seen an austin one that costs 70 bucks on 7ent.com

 

And another one, this was before my stripes, checkered roof etc.

 

Finally got mine installed. Now I just have to drop the steering column because it looks weird now:

I have a brand new drop bracket if you need one. Let me know.
