(IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) is my only description of the wheel hub I bought off a Momo dealer on ebay.
Following issues; 914 VDM horn contact ring won't fit correctly, hub spline is too thick,hub nut not fully on column shaft thread, hub earths on steering column,without spacer on shaft. Contacted the seller and he claims to have stated the stock horn contact ring may not fit in his auction,nothing to that effect,checked it,its so far out the cancel piece is a long way out from being centre on the RH side. No where on the box is "made in Italy",the instructions say so but these could be easily copied,really thinking its a Chinese "knock off",anyone had this issue. Vent over ok...anyone else had this issue. TIA |

Ebay has a ton of Momo and other brand steering wheels and such shipping from China. I don't know if it's all fakes or downgraded Chinese market stuff. With so much manufacturing being sent to China it's hard to tell these days.
I know Spal has a Chinese factory now. And all aluminum radiators/condensers/heaters are made in China. |
