I was around then. That's why I looked. I remember that thread. I was happy to confirm that you were right (again).

I pulled the windshield opn Christmas Day. Doesn't look too bad, but I've said that before. I'll get the interior trim pads pulled out soon, dig the adhesive out and wire brush it all to find out for sure.

I posted another thread on the club site asking about the switch enclosure removal with a PET jpg. Here are the pics:
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/members/ginter/MVC-462F.JPG) It took a slide hammer to get this steering wheel adapter off.

When I bought the car, it had a MOMO Monte Carlo wheel. I swapped it out with my MOMO Racing Line wheel. It bolted right to this adapter. I think it's just an old MOMO adapter. The newer MOMO adapters don't look like this I know that.

I'm committed now. Or I should be comitted. One of them is defintely true.
Damn that Brad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) "I'm not pulling the harness." Brad replies, "It's easy." Andy did it in an hour." Actually, is wasn't too bad getting the dash wiring out. Now for the front and the rear (I know the rear's gonna be fun). (IMG:http://www.914world.com/members/ginter/MVC-523F.JPG) |

QUOTE strange wheel adapter what is it? Thats a collapsible adapter. It will give before the steering wheel bends, absorbing some impact. |

QUOTE Yeh, but how long to put it back? Hah! At least one full (long) day. It took 4 hours to get it all out. I just finished. It's laying on the garage floor. There's a LOT of wire there. Props to Andy (or anyone else for that matter) that can do this in under 2 hours. Film at 11:00... |

OUCH!!
Guys, when you pull a harness out, PULL a NEW WIRE the other way as you take it out.. You know why? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) 1. Easy to pull the harness back, less likely to hurt the harness pushing. 2. SO YOU KNOW WHERE AND HOW IT WAS PULLED. M |

QUOTE You know why? Anyone who's done it knows why. Actually, you can do it just before you re-install. It wouldn't be difficult. Thanks Rich for the advice this afternoon (phone conversation). |
