Sports Wheels question by cool_dude: Sports steering wheel and cruise control for 626?
I am thinking of fitting a sports steering wheel to a Mazda 626 (1993 model)
The boss kit and steering wheel available but i have a problem with it’s standard steering wheel.

The cruise control buttons are on the factory steering wheel at moment.
So what am i gonna do with cruise when I fix a sports wheel which only has one button for the horn??

Thanks

P.S; The two buttons are “accel” and “decel”
Mate, (bmw4dea)
I have done so much work on this 626

So it’s worth the steering.
It’s been fitted with a custom turbo + many many xtras.
I simply like this car so much as it was my own first car.
