many many years ago i bought a sports steering wheel from autobarn for a bug... all you need is the correct boss adaptor to suit the beetle.
see.... air and water do mix

try a VW shop like the Aust VW perf centre. I'm sure they'd have something or could point you in the right direction.
BTW, why do you want a white one? It will get dirty very very fast.

If you can't find the one you want in white, choose the one you want and I'll recover it in white leather for you.

To recover at a saddlery will cost approximately $120. Mines getting recovered at the moment. i could buy a new wheel for that much but it will look
like new when done anyhow.
