Installation and Usage

Although described as DIY, fitting requires removing the factory steering wheel and airbag module. Airbags can cause serious injury if handled incorrectly, and removing one may trigger warning lights and affect compliance. We strongly recommend installation by a qualified technician. Check the wheel is centred, all bolts are tight and the horn works before driving.
