Max Rob Steering Wheel
typ268 - January 6th, 2011 at 03:50 PM

I have a wooden Max Rob wheel about 14" diameter in good order with Wolfsburg horn button. Can this be fitted to my 65 splittie? Is it too small for leverage??

I have a 14" wooden Max Rob wheel. Will this fit a 65 type 2 column?

if you can get the correct boss kit any wheel will fit. Would be worried about timber cracking due to force of heavy kombi compared to sedan. Wheel is probably 30yrs old. so fatigue may be a factor.

Timber splitting due to the weight of the Kombi?! What rubbish!

If you can find (or make) a boss kit which matches your car then you can bolt it on just fine.

thanks to both of you.
Will source a new boss.
Should most VW shops have them?
How much?
