Re: steering wheel interchangeability ?

["Chris DeLong" <green536@hotmail.com>]

This sleeve is a press fit on an otherwise normal steering column. Normal 
being what we see everyday. All Corrados, mid '89 A2's, All A3's AFAIK to 
'98, Also B3-B4 Passats (I cant say for sure about B5 Passats as I have not 
had one apart yet). I use a bearing splitter (funny flat tool with 2 bolts 
and a round center with an edge on one side) I then attach the bearing 
splitter to a steering wheel puller kit. Next is removal of the sleeve. Trun 
the steering wheel puller until the sleeve is off. Then you will have to cut 
the bottom half of the sleeve (bottom half being the end that points towards 
the engine); it is about 1/2" deep (long?). Then you will be able to use 
this to attach a late model wheel to your car.

HTH and ask questions if that isnt clear enough.
