Here we have a nice modern looking 206 steering wheel which will fit, with some cowel 'adjustments' to a 306.
A little worn on top edge and needs a bit of a clean:
was going to fit it to mine, but spotted something else I want!!

PS I know some say it shouldnt be posted but a breakeryard posted it to me!!

I know you say a breakers posted it to you but you will be taking the risk by posting it and the receiver will take a risk to as it is illegal to post explosives

Yeah briefly.
Guess its opinion but all the 306 steering wheels are crap IMO.
It felt great to be honest and made the whole cabin look much younger. Those thumb grips are really sweet

Loads of people kill people on a daily basis too... doesn't make it right now does it? If you've ever seen an airbag go off.. you wouldn't want that to be getting bounced around in transit

thought it took voltage to set a bag off? . .

Depends on the deployment system used really.. static electricity can also set them off though

thats such a wives tale!!
Yes, I have seen them go off, I have also seen them not go off even when the correct voltage is given.

Problem being.. you won't know if it works til after it does/doesn't deploy! Sending explosives via mail isn't a good idea full stop...

Guys can we keep this on topic. It's not up to us to decide if he takes the risk to send it in the post.

I never said they were inappropriate. Personally I agree that airbags shouldn't go in the post bearing in mind it is technically breaking the law however we are not in any position to tell piggy what he can and can't do. That's his decision.

Err actually most of the time seeing as my daily is tracked so I can't speed. And yes thank you, every mod down to the owners club sticker is declared with my insurer.
Thanks for showing concern though! Now stop trying to get a rise out of people.

sorry Nial, I didnt mean YOU specifically...was a general thing...I bet we all technically break the law everyday...
Im just saying..It was a royal you...not you specific
PS if people so concerned about static in a cardboard box,I will bag the airbag in an anti static bag

Surely there's more risk of it going off while its actually mounted to a car where its wired up to a power system, in theory couldn't an electrical short set it off?
And if he packages it properly in bubble wrap, binbags, paper etc, correct me if I'm wrong but they aren't electrical conductors?
Not trying to spark (excuse the pun) an argument or debate but I don't see any problem with him posting it :S
GLWTS anyway looks quite nice but I can't afford bits like steering wheels
