So I recently inherited my fathers '74 914. I'm 6'6" and the steering wheel is a little too large for my legs. I had a similar problem in my '74 super beetle, but I easily swapped the wheel for a smaller aftermarket one. I have looked into Grant steering wheels but I have no idea which adapter to find (I can't find it anywhere). I am also wondering if the splines and basic geometry of a 914 hub are similar to a VW's. Since I don't have the car yet, I'm wondering if anyone has put an INEXPENSIVE smaller wheel in their car.

You can easily fit a smaller wheel - and lots of people do, I have a momo in mine.
There is also an ellipitical steering wheel hub adaptor which raises the wheel a bit too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
