A wheel from a 2005/6 Fiesta Zetec should go straight on - albeit some faffing around with the airbag! And possibly the Mondeo or Focus from the same era (with no wheel controls) I say should, as i think i am right in saying it is the same boss as the earlier Connects like mine. I have done this swap, and worked very well for me. Much nicer than the horrible plasticy squidgy original one.
Someone will be able to correct me on the compatibility.

Focus mk2 / C-Max (4 spoke) steering wheel will bolt straight on 2009-2013 Connects. :P
