    Yep, you're right there MADDOG. I put a smaller one on my old '96 130. It worked like a dream. Trouble with the Puma is the air bag.......Unless we discard that item, then I really dont know how to help. Unless we use a Disco wheel?

    The current Defnders do have an airbag but it is a state of the art design which is triggered wirelessly.

    If you do fit an aftermarket steering wheel, simply sit the airbag on top of the dash & it will work just the same. If you fit it in the centre of the dash, both the driver & passenger will be covered equally well.

    What The????? I want what your smoking It's the whole reason they are not sold in the USA, because they do not meet their safety standards.
