Hi Guys

Just a quick question if any knows off the top of their heads how many splines are on the column of my car (318i touring late '92 car)?

I haven't yet taken mine off in case i encounter any problems as the last car i tried to swap s/wheels on, i ended up mullering the column - but it was my old MGB and is a bit agricultural! Is it way easier on the B'Em?

Thaks for your help

No idea how many splines, but you'd have to be an absolute animal to muller an e30 column just putting a steering wheel on! Go for it mate, you should have no problems!

As long as you realise that the steering lock has to be off to remove/fit the wheel.
