The wheel should fit, you'll just have to use your old airbag...one doesn't come with the new wheel anyway so all should be fine!

Right ive got the wheel, looks very nice, but how will i know if its gonna fit? i wanna try it but is there anyway i can tell without dismantaling the old one? if it dont fit could i just buy a newer airbag? or would that cost a load?

think airbags would cost ya loads.......it not worth getting one on eBay incase u get a duff one.
hmmmmm......u really need to take your current airbag off to find out whether it would fit, but i am 99% sure it wont (based on what i have been told elsewhere)

Ok, ive got a guy that should be able to fit it for me, im hoping, hes an auto electrician. or do you think its worth givin a go myself? im pretty confident with working on things but im a bit worried with it being an explosive device so how hard is it really? is it really best left to someone who knows for sure or worth doin it myself?

u can give it a go, just make sure u disconnect the battery and leave to discharge (the airbag) and away u go, but u need alot of the right tools for the job (personally not sure what u need tho)....u can tell straight away once u got the airbag off.....also make sure u handle the airbag with TLC...........otherwise KAAAAAAAAAABOOOOOOMM!!!
