Steering Wheel Compatability

[WRDendy]

I have a 2-spoke wheel that I'd like to fit to my '94 car with an airbag. I recall that fitting a Momo wheel can only be done in a pre-airbag car unless you change the steering coloumn, is the same true for the Volvo 2-spoke wheel?

Yes you have to change the steering column unit plus the connector yoke for the indicators and horn push. If you have the parts it is an easy job plus you can remove the SRS unit from below the cubby between the seats and fit the deeper cubby instead.

Thanks - I suspected as much!

Time to find someone breaking a pre-airbag car then...

One more question - if I change the steering column would I lose the ignition as well, and thus need two keys (one for the doors and one for the engine?)

No you just change the lock barrel over there is a howto on this very topic

...No surprises for guessing who wrote it I suppose?

Have you considered setting up a hotline?
