Removing/fitting boss kit

Post by jar_jar89 »

I've just got a new momo millenium steering wheel (350mm version), i need to buy a boss kit for it but am not 100% sure on which to get. I also am not sure how to take off the boss that is currently mounted. I have taken the steering sheel off a few times so that not a problem. Just cant really figure out how to remove the boss.
I would appreciate any links to websites that sell boss kit for 1996 corsa b that i can pay for straight from my credit card. Cant be assed with ebay cos of paypal. My card is registered on my brothers account so everythin gets posted to him. And we both got out own houses on opposite sides of the country, so dont wanna have to pay/wait for double postage.

u need the steering wheel puller to remove the old boss, but they are called steering wheel pullers, then u fit the new boss onto the shaft and spring, there are lots of little teeth on the shafts thats y its hard to remove by hand. make a mark on the new sttering wheel and shaft to align properly when fitting.
