Default Boss adaptor

Just acquired a S2 wheel and need a boss adaptor to fit it to the white mb, does anyone have any pointers which to use?

searched but not found a definitive answer

Gabriel had one going at Chatsworth which I bought off him. However, it's not as simple as first envisaged as I need to re-drill all the chuffin holes to match my S2 steering wheel...

Sorry that's not helped much John, I hope you get on better than I have!!!

the wheel should bolt directly to the boss. the holes in the boss are usually taped. this sounds a bit interesting!

demon tweeks are pretty professional. but you'd have to go down there to be sure they got it right. is yours 72mm PCD with 6x M5 countersunk bolts?
