Default Steering wheel vibration damper!

Out of curiosity really!

Apparently fitted to early diesel automatics.

Looks like a gold painted lead plate that fits into the steering wheel, under the airbag.

Anyone?

Since it is just a lump of lead to add mass to the steering wheel, you could "make" one?

That part number wasn't recognised when I searched Rimmers.

Can a picture of it be found anywhere please?

If it is lead, then it's probably a casting, like boat sacrificial anodes.

Reason I ask is possibility of making one, I'm interested.

Regards

Mike

Thank you, this forum certainly does come up with the goods.

I hope you didn't take the top off just for this photo, if you did, even more appreciated.

It does look like a casting.

Would there be any interest in having a batch made, I wonder.

Regards

Mike
