I'm sure I read on a forum some time ago that some people had put an MGF steering wheel on a ZS? The thinking being that a slightly smaller steering wheel would make it slightly easier to steer quickly.

I bought myself an MGF steering wheel (the later mk2 type) on eBay for £30 and attempted to fit it with mixed results.

Yes it fits, and yes it does slightly improve the ability to be more aggressive with the steering, but there are problems:-

1. The airbag connector is different, but that would be easy to adapt.

2. The horn earth cable is different, so the horn doesn't work, but again easy to adapt.

3. The ring on the steering column that locates into the steering wheel lugs (does the cancelling of the indicators) is 90degrees out when compared with the ZS steering wheel, so the indicators do not cancel correctly.


Has anyone else tried this?
Is there a way to adapt the indicator cancelling rings/lugs?
Or should I be using an earlier or later MGF steering wheel?
