Default Aftermarket steering wheels

Evening, I’d like to change my steering wheel in the 240. Some thing classic looking (3 spoke etc) seems a mind field when looking at bosses. Any one better info

You cant beat a Nardi Torino Classic wheel in my opinion.

Use a momo/omp boss with a driftworks steering wheel pcd adapter.

When looking on eBay I keep finding cheap steering wheel bosses. Any one used them before?

Yep. They are ****. Stick to a known brand such as momo, omp and kyb.

I've had a cheap Chinese one crack on my when fitting due to it being poorly made.

Total thought as much. Like most things from China. I seen that a Mazda mx5 boss works. Might try that.
