Steering wheels

Post by philhoward »

Maybe a strange question, but anyway...

Can you fit a Xantia steering wheel onto a ZX? Both are airbag ones, but want to get the steering wheel controls as per some Volcanes..plus the wheels a bit rough on mine!

A Volcane steering wheel will fit a ZX, I have one in my car. :) Whether or not a Xantia will fit a ZX I am afraid I have no idea.. :roll:

Are the airbag connectors the same? I don't think so, but I could be wrong.

Will the the Xantia remote controls work on a ZX radio? Doubtful.

Or will you need to get an aftermarket radio and an Autoleads adapter cable? Probably.

It all sounds like a lot of hassle.

Connections are not an issue; its whether or not the splines are the same or not?
Tried a back door trick - look for aftermarket steering wheel boss kits, but no joy there..

As with the BX/C15 front seats compatibility :
Trial may be much faster than finding the definitive written answer 8)

I would think the splines are the same for most Citroens.

I was actually looking for another thread but along these lines.

There was a guy kicking about that had put a Xantia steering wheel in his ZX. so its doable. There was a pic of it (thats what I was looking for) but I can't find it - anyone?

I bought a c4 steering wheel cheap a while ago in an attempt to fit this to my ZX. The good news is its close, bad news is the spine's are just abit to big on the ZX's collum. I've been trying to source a c4 collum but the only people I've found with a broken c4 wanted £££ for it, plus most people breaking card nowadays bundle all the airbags together, which is abit of a pain. So I'm waiting for my local breakers to get a c4 in :lol:

In the mean time has anyone got that pic of a Xantia rim in a ZX??
