What aftermarket steering wheel do you have? and how easy was the installation?

I'm a big fan of the Sabelt Renaultsport wheel, but you have to install the horn externally i believe?

There won't be many because the MOT over here says if your car came with an air bag it must have one and I don't recall seeing any after market ones with air bags.

Ah interesting. Is it considered legal to drive with no airbag if no MOT is necessary? :lol:

 

[deadmau5]

Haha. Is there no equivalent over on IoM?

 

[SJO]

No yearly equivalent, there is a MOT-like test when you bring a vehicle to the island (older than three years).

After that, you're good to go. Some right sheds about

Really? I know there has been changes but it seems it's still down to the testers discretion i.e. no warning light, airbag lights still function as normal

You're probably right and I'm just passing on incorrect information! I'm sure I read it somewhere though.

No you're correct as well, on forums I've seen just as many cars fail as pass. I think it is still a bit of a grey area
