What steering wheel
Thinking of changing the steering wheel on my 130 and have two contenders...

1. Startech
2. Momo Nero

Any pros or cons on these two ?

Momo looks Ok but not too keen on the black shiny center can it be fitted without that part? Startech from pics I have seen does not seem to match Defender interior too well.

nero all the way Thumbs Up you can fit it without the center piece but you will have to holes in the side of the wheel personally i think the center bit sets it off well but you could always get it in a different colour Thumbs Up CSK Automotive

It all depends on personal taste. I have experience with the Startech wheel for over a year now and can only say it is not cheap but it is a feast for the eye and a dream to use Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
In real life it is black like the rest of the interior, my camera's light setting was not very good making it grey, but it is not.

I think it is the absolute top for a high end spec Defender, but yes, pretty expensive Mr. GreenThud
I erased the exact amount from my memory many moons ago Whistle I do not regret having bought it, enjoy it every single day Smile

If someone wants to find out the cost today, here are the contact details for Startech Thumbs Up .....

Really? Then I still bought at the right time, and I know I already paid more than what it was 6 months earlier. You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

Did you clearly specify the color of the stitching? I believe if you don't it will be black leather with white stitching. For my SVX black stitching would be better, so they produced that for me.

One more thing, you will also get the adapter and you should specify how many splines your steering column has. Some Defenders have 32, most have 48, but I believe even today LR still produce both versions.
When I ordered, I removed my steering wheel and counted 48....
Good luck Thumbs Up You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.
