Default Steering wheel.

Will a BA steering wheel fit on an AU?

Yes and no. The shaft and bolt are the same, but the airbag and its connections are a totally different shape. So I think even with new wheel and new airbag, the airbag system may not work.

If you get a wheel like mine, you get the best of both - BA GT outer, with AU inner shape allowing direct fitting of the standard AU airbag.

Why not just go one of these. Uses your existing cruise switches and air bag.
I can get these. PM if interested.

I'd so love a blue one, but way out of my budget at the moment. :( Do you forsee having them for a while yet?
