Aftermarket steering wheel

[Niall]

I'm 6'6 and I like having the steering wheel up close still - the problem lies with the seat rails, the position is set up for ~5'8 people where the steering wheel is fairly close and they're a good distance from the pedals... For tall people you need the extra length on the seat rails, but need to compensate with the wheel being closer.

Way I've always figured is right, you should be able to sit upright in your seat, place your wrists on the steering wheel and your arms be not *quite* straight, but near enough. That way when your hands are on the wheel properly, you have a bend in your elbows, you can't drive a car with your arms absolutely straight - just doesn't work.

I used to have an OMP Corsica with slightly extended boss - perfect for me I found - once I had a set of buckets on extended rails it was near perfect - only problem was you had to lift your hands from the wheel to get to the indicators - but never really bothered me, if I really stretched my fingers I could reach the tip (lol, that's what she said) of the stalk.

Your taller than me!? Only by an inch though but apparently it all counts....

Agreed with all of that. I think driving a 306 over 6ft is a bit of a pain. If they had fitted them with reach and rake steering wheels that would of been perfect. Hence why I'm going to fit one. Should make it the perfect position but not having to reach for the stalks.
