hi people
I've got a T reg 300tdi disco with the smaller later type steering wheel with the airbag in it and basically I want to swap it for the older type with the horn in the middle and no airbag.
I've got a wheel to go on and I've had mine off for a look see but it would appear that I'm missing something for the conversion. I imagined that I would remove the wiring harness for the airbag and remove the spiral cassette that goes with it and just put my wheel on, but it looks a bit like there should be another more basic spiral cassette to go on before the older wheel. I'm wondering if anybody has tried or managed to do this before and succeeded or is the column different???
One of the reasons for me wanting to do the swap is because my wheel is more "in your face" like a disco 2 one is, I mean that when you set the seat so that the pedals are right for you, the wheel feels too far out towards you, whereas the earlier discos seem to have them better placed. Does anyone know why this is, is it the wheel or column or is the pedal box where I should be looking???
Any help gratefully received
