Probably a 48 Catherine, it's the number of grooves running around the inside of the Steering wheel (that fit over the corresponding splines on the steering column)...

Shame you've stuck it on eBay rather than offering it here

I shall put the side steps on here Martin
I actually didn't think a plastic steering wheel would be that popular with the enthusiast to be honest. |

Hi,
As its Xmas I have an XS steering wheel from a 2010 free to anyone wishing to collect. Stops my partner asking why it's on the rear seat and how much the new one was. Otford/Sevenoaks area - PM me if interested. Ho ho ho |

^^^That is very generous of you!
I sold mine on here for £20....people ask stupid money for them but I suppose if the demand is there for a steering wheel with a non-functional black continental quilt stuck in the middle? Try not to cause the site to crash in the stampede.   If you go through life with your head in the sand....all people will see is an ar5e!!
Treat every day as if it is your last....one day you will be right!! |

I've had someone again ask about number of splines. I've looked at the back of the wheel and I just have 2 metal lugs.

Inside the hole in the middle are a load of little peaks and troughs - count the number of one or the other

An '07 Hard Top should be 48 splines, but count them.

If you wrap a small piece of paper (just enoungh to fit round the splines) round the top of the steering column... squeeze the paper tight against the splines. Remove the paper and flatten it out. Should be easier to count the impressions that the splines made rather than trying to count them on the column.

Thanks guys, I should have actually said we sold it and got £47 for including postage. Really nice surprise that.
