coool mate..

this is an open question.. the steering wheel i have at the moment, im not fond of it, as it seems like its too fragile and will break ... i want to change it for the one from the newer model, it looks much better and is more comfortable to grip..

is the change over possible, personally i dont see why not if you can put on aftermarket steering wheels.. however went donw to my local vw garage.. and the bloke said its not possible... ..

ne help?

One of my favourite 'subtle' Polo's is way_z's TDI, it looks understated, yet there are some subtle changes going on, which would be missed by the untrained eye

The steering wheel is rather dainty, but an aftermarket one would be best, nice and chunky

I have a 300mm Momo Team in my 'Rocco. It's smaller than other wheels, but I have no problems with it and I have no PAS

I saw an absolutely tiny Momo 'wheel on a mark2 golf the otherday. NMust have been something like 240mm! Made me want one, but the loss of an airbag really does hold me back.

Also if you are thinking of changing your air filter, You will most likely get a panel one, if you want a cone shaped one, try K and N and this is the part number for a cone induction kit . 57 - 0628
