small spine at a guess

but if it is the larger spine it is just a bush that pulls off

mine was a large spine but i bought a small spline kit so if i want to change my car i can swap the kit over :)

Take the wheel off and check, if you get the wrong adaptor it can be a PITA as the small splined ones are a lot shorter meaning the wheel (and therefore your fingers!) sits right up to the indicator stalks if the wheel isnt dished at all. Sure you can get around that but seeing as the wheel will be coming off to do the swap you may as well take it off now as a check to see you have the right socket size.

it should be a small spline, but you wont know for sure till you check, who knows what has happened in the last 13 years ;)
