Clock spring question
Hey everyone!
Quick question, can anyone tell if this clock spring is centered? I lined up the little arrows when installing, but maybe it's still turned?

Sorry man but from all the videos and threads I've seen, there isn't a way to tell from looking at the exterior. Most just install and work. Hope you get this **** sorted, it's disappointing to say the least.

You might have seen my other post about retrofitting a CLA steering wheel, and the w212 column was DoA.
I managed to take it apart and replace the clock spring inside. I found one for almost nothing, it didn't fit at first, but I managed to modify it by cutting off some plastic.
