I had this problem in November.
Sass do not make them, the Autotechnica version did not fit my Disco (SRS removed - legally for all those who continue to say that you can't)
Which means the Autotechnica version was/is crap or that the SRS vehicles have different spline count and diameter which is untrue as I run a non SRS vehicle Steering wheel on a Ex-SRS car.
If you buy Autotechnica or any other brand, please let me know as I still want another wheel.
Sorry this is not much use to you, but you may find the same issues in which we can then raise with Autotechnica.
Cheers

My solution was to obtain a honda steering wheel boss, and, using a hobby engraver with grinding wheel, grind out a chamfer to fit the neck of the disco steering column. It works out that you have to remove about 1mm of metal at the base tapering to zero 15mm down the hole. If you take your current steering wheel off you'll see what I mean.

you would want to make sure that the boss has the cruise control buttons on it too

Is the steering column the same as a 95' model ?
Mine does not have air bags or the cruise control so thought it would be a straight forward part to get .
