Posted March 4, 200322 yr comment_28561 OK...I have a steering wheel, it is an original...I have been restoring it (polishing, restaining and laquering the rim), but I NEED a hrnpad...now I have a 260 2+2, and the steering wheel looks very different to others that I have seen! It has a polished steel set of bi-tri spoke (3 spokes, but each one is made of two thin ones with a horn button in between each of the three sets...ok, if you can understand what i mean, could you aid me in finding a kit? I have read that they're around $80, is that true of my wheel?Thanks guys...haven't had to worry about it since I have an aftermarket wheel, but I want the original in (it looks way classier!).Cheers ppl!

March 4, 200322 yr Author comment_28597 Thats the exact one...good work, I was wondering...oh well, first question, since I have never fitted it, does it fit up to the standard Z mounts? Second, if it does, where can I get the horn pad from?Thanks guys, I was wondering why I had never seen it on a Z before!Cheers ppl!

March 5, 200322 yr comment_28600 Hey Leeroy, That's the wheel I'm running on my 260Z. Not to bad all in all, and for $20 from the local U-Pull-It wrecking yard I'm pretty happy You should be able to find one on a 240K in a wrecking yard without too much difficulty. Cheers, Ross.

March 5, 200322 yr comment_28601 Nice piece of detective work there Mattlock...I mean Alfadog. I had no idea as to what Leeroy had described. I think it looks rather nice, classic as it were.---Jerry Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/4968-oknot-hoping-to-go-over-a-very-well-worn-post-topic/#findComment-28601 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 5, 200322 yr comment_28602 It is a nice steering wheel.. classic style rather than performance no-nonsense style as the Z wheel is... maybe a bit big though Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/4968-oknot-hoping-to-go-over-a-very-well-worn-post-topic/#findComment-28602 Share on other sites More sharing options...

March 5, 200322 yr comment_28613 Was just looking at a magazine in the Newsagent and seen something similar advertised for $55.00All you have to do is wander down to the Newsagent and look for the "Just Parts" mag which lists the parts in alphabetical order. Had a picture of it.Got to be under D or N or S (narrowed down a bit) as these are the areas I looked at.biker Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/4968-oknot-hoping-to-go-over-a-very-well-worn-post-topic/#findComment-28613 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 5, 200322 yr comment_28615 Yeah Alpha. It's thinner so I think that's why it feels bigger :classic: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/4968-oknot-hoping-to-go-over-a-very-well-worn-post-topic/#findComment-28615 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 5, 200322 yr comment_28621 I've got a cover on the Z steering wheel at the moment too, so that would make it even thicker...
