SAW 0 Posted June 1, 2004 Hello Wonder if anyone can help? I'm trying to fit an aftermarket steering wheel using a mountney boss kit and they seem to have supllied me with an early type small splined boss kit! The factory who i'm dealing with through a friend in Halfords are saying I have the correct boss and have to remove the outer adaptor on my steering colum to make it fit?? This seems like a lot of crap to me and was wondering if anyone has fitted a wheel to their Corrado using a mountney boss kit and did they have any problems?? :?

Supercharged 2 Posted June 1, 2004 Some Corrado's have the Mk2 collumns / splines, some have Mk3 after the change over but its not entirely consistent! - I would say you have the wrong one, if its a mk2 one change it for a mk3 and vice versa...

dazzyvr6 0 Posted June 1, 2004 i bought mine from halfords,thought they only dealt with raid bosses,and the later mk2 golf bosses are the same as the mk3,think they changed over 1990 or something like that :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted June 1, 2004 Mountney don't make a boss for the late MKII/ early Corrado column.... I've had loadsa problems trying to source one for a mate's missus for her Golf... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAW 0 Posted June 1, 2004 Ok thanks for the info. My mate has had a real hard time dealing with Mountney as they are swearing it should fit my car! Would help if they knew their own products :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted June 2, 2004 momo, raid, sparco and a few others make bosses which DO fit Corrados though... unfortunately not many of these will fit a Mountney wheel though... :? :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAW 0 Posted June 2, 2004 Thats ok its not a Mountney wheel, its a Nardi wheel I picked up off a guy at International. I wasnt sure if I could get one of their bosses so I tried Mountney as they said it would fit no probs? Probably try one of the other manufacturers you mention. Thanks. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy Brookes 0 Posted June 4, 2004 theres a guy on ebay that sells momo bosses, just got one for £15, normal price is 40ish Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAW 0 Posted June 7, 2004 Looks like a Sparco one will fit and its supposed to be on its way. Think I will keep looking at options just in case!! The momo boss wont fit my wheel without an adaptor but thats an option I could look into if the Sparco doesnt work. I will keep a look out on Ebay, Cheers. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
