Sparco steering wheel
« on: November 01, 2017, 07:51:33 AM »
Hi folks,
I have bought a Sparco D shaped sports steering wheel for my F430. It's been a challenge so far to fit the bits on as it's much smaller.
I have had to reduce the silver back plate to get it to fit and look in proportion and in doing so buggered up the sticker trying to peel it off - Race, start etc.
Does anyone know where I can get a new one from ?
I did try to post a picture but it was too big.
Cheers
OXO

I have a new one that I got off Brian a fair few months ago

I'll need to locate it, as I need it for my red 430 build

But I suppose you could get a copy off it? And have one printed up?

Mick my pal is currently working in Germany and said he can replicate them when he returns home, perhaps someone on here could replicate.

Hiya Roland,
                       I could use 3, OXO needs 1, a few extra as spare would be handy for me to have.
A small sheet say 10 if you can please

Hi Roland,

That would be brilliant ! Please could you send me one and let me know how much I owe you.

The new wheel has been a challenge as it's smaller and flat on the bottom, so I have had to reduce the silver back plate and the black cover which houses the horn by about 15 mm to make it look in proportion.
Then, as I used a hub, I had to re model the back plastic cover which encloses everything behind the wheel. (angle grinder and filler lol)

All just about ready to assemble and put back on.
