Nardi Steering wheel on an R-129

I have 2 w107 SL's and have 390mm Nardi steering wheels on both of them (classico's with the nice polished aluminum arms and wood wheel) I REALLY want one on my 300SL but cant find a hub adaptor for the R129. Does anyone know if MOMO, Nardi, or anyone else makes a hub adaptor for R129 steering columns???

well, im not sure about this one. your best bet is to contact all of the wheel manufactures and ask them.

just curious what is stock diameter of the SL wheel? 390,400,410mm?? a 350 would probably do wonders in feel but of course you would have to delete airbag to do so which is a big no no.

You can find the "proper" wood and leather wheel for your car.

what if i dont want proper. have you ever driven a nice european sports car behind a brand new nardi steering wheel? they're super light, stylish, very finely made, and look great too.

I like to drive nice cars with the oem equipment. The type of steering wheel you're talking about looks odd to put it mildly.
Hey but if it floats your boat, knock yourself out. Make sure you fasten your seat belt.
