Re: steering wheel interchangeability ?

["Ewan Hopkins" <ewanhopkins@hotmail.com>]

53-K-002-790 and onwards had the bigger spline. I think it's just a push on 
sleeve though so it should be possible to swap the bigger one for a smaller 
one - they should be < 20 buck fronm the dealer.  Might be worth trying to 
remove the bigger one first to test this theory!

HTH,
