<02> 320i steering wheel in 2002



Earlier I posted:

Phil Marx was good enough to point out the confusion in that last
sentence, so I owe you a better explanation.

The problem is not the diameter but the hub.  A 15-inch steering 
wheel on a 2002 is just fine.  An E21 320i wheel will fit a 2002.
An E30 325 ('89 at least) wheel will _not_ fit a 2002 because the
hub is radically different.

Sorry for the confusion.
