Regal T-Type Steering Wheel

GN1220 thanks for doing the wheel for me . I will be sporting a new wheel soon !

I flew home last night, and opened up an early christmas present,.


great packaging,.
and a really nice steering wheel,..!!



Thanks Mike,..

Looks very nice I would like to have one.

i installed the steering wheel today,.
unfortunately the color is way off,.
and the horn trim ring was so fragile where it was fixed it came apart into three pieces,.

i added the resistor and the airbag light is happy,.

One step forward two back?

I should've mentioned, but I thought it was common knowledge, that you don't tighten those rings down as they are super fragile and rare as hens teeth. If I can find another I will shoot it and send it to you. But you didn't notice the color was off before you installed it? That was the correct color code for your car.

Common knowledge,. not always so common i guess.

The ring broke before it was installed,.the one side the material used to glue it together looked like it didn't take so well, no worries, i still have some plastex left,.and i'll see if i can come up with a closer sem color,.

The car is a 1995?

I buy from Vinylpro.com

This is the color, it is a custom mix: SEM Color Coat #4820 Medium Adriatic Blue

Coincidentally, the original thread was from 5 years ago, started by the member that you bought the wheel from, looking for the correct color. He just never used the correct color; #4820 is a perfect match. That's what he needs to buy to redo your wheel.

Thanks Tom,. i doubt i'm going to freight the wheel all the way back to kansas,..it ended up being just a little over budget by the time it got here first time,..shipping is a killer up here,.
I usually ship to buffalo, then drive down and get stuff,.

Probably the easiest fix, is for him to buy you the correct color SEM and send it to you.
