    True, but it saved huge holes being punched through my doors and I only had to replace the plinth after they broke in. Can't moan at that.

    well it looks like a removable steering wheel would be the best bet, if it was ever to get broken into i would rather they rape the car of a few bits than drive of with the whole thing and burn her to death,

    may be i should place a sticker on the window politly saying, please take what you want but dont damage the new paint job.:)

    No. The two boss halves are a matched pair, so another wheels won`t fit.

    Basically, the half of the boss attached to the column has three steel dowels, that locate in holes in the half attached to the wheel. These dowels and holes are in a random configuration on each boss kit.

    Should be OK for going round the shops, since the boss has an integrated lock so even if someone finds the wheel they can`t fit it and drive off without it`s key. Obviously, when you are at home bring the wheel in with you.
