Not suitable for 189d

  • Steering wheel: Brand new. These are NOS stock items. It has been thoroughly cleaned. In picture 14 you can clearly see a scratch in the plastic. Not visible when installed. In Figure 11 you can see small inclusions in the plastic; such inclusions used to be state of the art. Cannot be felt and mounted also not visible.

  • Brackets: Original brackets, therefore perfect chrome.

  • Horn/flashing ring: Original old part from the 50s, was perfectly rechromed with a lot of effort, no grinding marks or inclusions, flawless. This original is made of die-cast zinc, and is therefore much lighter than the later productions made of heavy steel, with the different serrated edge.

  • Star: New part, color matches the steering wheel color perfectly.
