    Collected the car from CPC this week with a nice new (working) wheel and no airbag light displayed.

    Phil gave me the old slip ring, and the connector had the ribbon cable ripped out of it... source of the problem.

    Looking at both of the wheels, the only difference I could see was the slot for the wires, is slightly bigger on the newer wheel, however you can still fit the wires through into the old one and to confirm, it definitely all works.

    To clarify, My Coupe is a May 2000 build with the dual stage airbag, and I had a pre April 1999 steering wheel fitted, whilst retaining my airbag and slipring.

    Andrew,

    I can't see properly in the photo, is that Leather or Alcantara at the top and bottom of the wheel?
