ive always had this steering wheel, thats on a 87, 88 and 89 16v





I have this wheel on my 90 spec 8v. Oh, and you'll never know how much i want to know what that thing under your indicator stalk is, pray tell?

this wheel is from a non pas car.

the pas wheels look the one at the top of page 1

As above, pas ones had straight spokes, non pas had roundy ones.  the non-pas wheel is also slightly wider to help with leverage due to the heavy steering!  If yours dont match up then its been replaced at some point ;)

This only applies to the later cars, the early wheels were different designs.  The really early ones had the old skool MK1 wheel with the 4 horn buttons on for example :)

It's not better, taste is subjective you can't say that.

But I agree :laugh:

nah leather bound straight spoke wheel is nicer imo, but the 4 button wheel is best in a MK1 or old skool MK2.  Of course only if we're talking std wheels, I think my mountney 3 spoker is nicest for a MK2, and old skool mountney 4 spoker is best for an old skool MK1 ;)

for me... momo corse is the perfect period aftermarket wheel on a mk2, my passat has a leather bound straight spoke wheel so in a way i have it all! mind you meant to be picking up a momo race for the passat at the weekend so i guess i'll have a choice!
