So after searching furiously and reading up on steering wheel installs, I come to this:
My hub cannot go all the way in as it is sitting on top of two connectors (female) (pictured above).
These are the two connectors:
and they are making contact with the hub at these two locations:
I cannot find a way to rid of these connectors (nor is it safe to) and now I'm blaming the hub design itself.
And I have both NRG and Worksbell short hub. They both don't fit.
So does anyone (particularly the people with aftermarket steering wheels) know what the work around is on this? There is no DIY on this forum... All i can find are 350z DIYs and they do not have those two connectors.
le sigh. spent all day trying to figure this out =(
