Hi, i have just bought a 71 super beetle and am looking at putting one of the original steering wheels with the horn ring that most of the early beetles came out with, my 71 has a 4 spoke rally type wheel and i want the classic look. does anyone know if i can put one of these on a 71 super?

hmmm, what if it is a 72? didnt they come out with a different safety aspect with the wheel? the chassis is a 71 but what i have been reading up on the 71s, mine sounds like a 72, now im reallly confused!!!
