Steering Wheel Replacement - Fitting

[Danvdb1]

Hi folks, I have a new steering wheel on the way from Royal Steering Wheels for my 197 Cup but I need to find someone to switch it over. I don't want to do it myself. Is this a normal garage job? I am in Southampton if anyone has any local recommendations. I just want somewhere reliable to take it. Thanks, Dan

The job is not that complicated and there is a guide here https://clio197.net/threads/how-to-remove-steering-wheel.47613/

Must have taken me about an hour to get mine off

The airbag is definitely the hardest bit

From what I remember the rest of it wasn't too bad

I watched Jack at Royal Steering wheels do mine on Wednesday - he's obviously done it a million times but it was pretty straight forward and only took a few minutes - the only bit I didn't see was changing over the steering wheel buttons. Hope you like the wheel, they've done a lovely job of mine!

Ok thanks, I'll give it a go. Yeah - I can't wait to get the new wheel.

Just be careful with the clock spring when when you take the wheel off (try and keep it in one place)

THIS!!

Do not move the clock spring (squib) and change the wheel in its central position
