the fusion steering wheel also fits with no mods to the airbag (same as fiesta), the fiesta wheels are getting pricey on fleabay because people want them for the connect. i got my leather fusion wheel for £15 with £10 p&p :D

Hey madray, i was just looking at that last pic, and noticed that the rev counter between 2k and 3k isn't as bright as the rest. my van is the same and i assumed one of the leds had failed, (see other thread), but now i wonder if they are all like that?? any ideas??
