Do these fit into a Corsa B? The steering wheels from the MK4 Astra Turbo
Has anyone fitted one and is it a straight swap?
Thanks

I think they have a bigger spline so they won't fit.

The only thing they have in common is they both have the titanium colour part on them somewhere.Look totally different tho imo.Centre part(airbag) looks different and the Gsi wheel has the thumb bits.
Both nice wheels non the less.

I think the Astra ones look better, the Vectra ones look bigger. Are they any bigger?
