New Steering Wheel
 
Some may or may not know I have a MG F Wheel and TF Airbag, and it is a right good sporty wheel, but last week I stumbled across a monogram accessory for the ZS on Ebay, a Black/Red Leather wheel, so tonight I swapped everything over to the new wheel.

So what are you doing with the old wheel, Is it smaller Diameter than my Wife's ZR 160 standard wheel? ANd would it go straight on?

ooo nice!

the TF wheel is a bit smaller, and you need to either cut your air bag or get a TF airbag to fit it. You also need a ZS to TF steering column adapter. It's a little brass spacer that comes up on ebay from time to time

The old wheel is from a MG F, the air bag is from a MG TF, I also have the correct air bag reluctor ring. I don't know if the wheel is smaller on the F/TF to the ZR, if the wheel is smaller then send me a PM and I might be persuaded to part with it!

If I decide to do a mod I tend to do it properly instead of bodging things together, so all proper MGR parts were involved in changing from a ZS to a F/TF wheel and then back again.
