Fitting a 300mm steering wheel and HKB boss to the Mazda MX5

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video i fit the a new 300mm OMP steering in my Mazda MX5 to give me a little extra leg room.
It's made the driving position so much more comfortable for me and is the first modification i have made to the car.

    Great to see the smaller steering wheel has fixed the space issue. Main issue sorted for you getting to properly enjoy the mx5 😀

    Glad to see the smaller wheel has done the trick, it looks cool too. Can't wait to see more videos on this and see how it progresses. It's gunna look ace. 😉👌

    Good video on how this is all done. I have an MR2 Roadster and I have the exact same issue with my legs. I'm still a little confused about the extensions and what boss to get...

    I just installed the same on my mx5 so thanks for video, it was helpful. The one thing I'm not 100% on though is the plastic cover of the hkb adapter keeps turning with the wheel and the resistor inside is moving and making noise. Did you do anything to keep that from happening?

    My problem would be that I would like a deep dish steering wheel and a quick release. That would probably put the steering wheel too close. How could I reduce this length ? I'm probably not going to reach the turn signal stalk properly.

    G'day mate! I know the video is a lil older but I'm looking for a detailed installation vid. And yours is just perfect😊👍. I try to find out what kind of offseted wheel I'll need in my NA, and I'll also go with the HKB hub. Can you tell me how long the Hub is by itself? I'd appreciate it! Regards from Germany!

    At the time I filmed the video they were perfectly legal but they've recently introduced laws regarding aftermarket steering wheels . I've not looked too much into as I don't have the car anymore but just give it a quick Google.
