Steering Wheels

[tex]

Bit of a geeky question but here goes...

I just bought a CSL steering wheel off fleebay (I plan to get my original recovered and use this on the car while it's being done), however the SMG paddles are flat on the back rather than dimpled like the ones on my CSL. Does this mean it's off a CS or just a later / earlier version from a CSL? If it is from a CS any ideas if it is fully compatible with a CSL...?

Ta, tex.

Just different sized paddles for euro market and US market - it seems the Europeans have smaller hands than the Americans, so they all got the larger paddles :gayfight:whereas the Americans got the smaller paddles.

Just swap them over - they all bolt up the same.

Excellent, thanks for that, much appreciated. Forums are amazing aren't they when you get an answer to a random question from the other side of the world!

therefore i guess answering your forst question the smaller ones must be of the CS as the CSL was never sold in the USofA:thumbs:
