Well finally got around too buying a Momo steering wheel, arranged for me mechanic mate too fit it for me along with the white dials I\'ve had for nearly a year, dials went on ok but he hit a problem with the boss. Apparently the wire\'s would not fit through for the horn etc, sorry too be so vague but a bit technical for me. Anyway has anyone else come across this problem when fitting a Momo wheel, it\'s for a 93 touring model with cruise etc. Is there a way of getting around the problem, a bit desperate now for a solution hope you can help ........best regards Leigh.
The boss you have is for an FC not an FD. I don\'t think momo list one for the FD. I made mine fit with a bit of drilling :)
Cheers

I got a FD boss from momo and the horn would not earth, had to mess about, took a couple of hours but its worth it
Have you got a part number for the fd momo boss, as they told me they only do one for the fc. Thanks.
i "think" there was mention on FDUK ages back that this was all you need as FC & FD the same let me dig thru old emails to see if that was case or anyone else confirm that? (http://mysmilies.ipbfree.com/s/contrib/dvv/sconf.gif)

booger think i deleted the emails when it turned out my car already had a momo fitted & cant find anything using search (http://mysmilies.ipbfree.com/s/contrib/edoom/puppy_dog_eyes.gif) but i think wot i\'ve said is true but i give no guarantees, maybe best to wait for some1 knowledgable & sure turns up! lol

Be carefull with this as l have been trying to sort out this problem with Momo for a while now for one of our members with a non air bagged car.
If you have an Air bag refer to this site to adapt your Momo boss

In searching for the solution to the problem l have faced l have found that there are 4 different steering columns for an FD by the part numbers !
l am now going to as the company has suggested measure and send an impression of the splines to them as they assure me that they will match and send the correct one.
Been a nightmare this one !!!
I am using a fc boss, but the problem i am facing as with others i would imagine, is the horn. The RX uses quite an odd system to operate the horn.
Clive,
im very sure that this member will be very happy with all the effort put in to ensure the correct kit is supplied.
:D
Thanks Steve, doin me best, cheers
Quick update on the boss, been too see Geff today and he has sourced an adaptor too get around the wiring problems. Is coming from Japan so will take awhile. When it\'s here I will let you know how it goes cheers Leigh.
