Anyone know if a OMP/Sparco etc boss from another make or model will fit the 5? Thinking it might make finding a wheel on ebay easier. :coffee:

only advice i can give there is check the depth of the new boss,check its the same as the gtt one or you may end up with a steering wheel which is either to close or to far away then the standard set-up and you may not like it.

A bit closer wouldn't be so bad actually as I've bolted my seat back quite far (long legs).

I was meaning compatibility with the steering column.

So perhaps the omp boss from a vauxhall or Citroen would fit? There is one on eBay ATM listen for a Renault Megane, are all the Renaults the same? :confused:
