Twincam Springall steering wheel center
« on: Sunday,September 24, 2017, 04:57:41 PM »
Hi guys,

I have managed to track down a four hole Springall steering wheel to suit our special. I have everything except for the center cap (photo) that fits over the nut with the lotus badge in it.

I imagine they are about impossible to find, but before I try to turn something up on the lathe I was wondering if anyone had cast one in resin and might have a mold?

Cheers
Gav

no, but if you have the means to manufacture them I bet there are a few here that would want one.

I need one, but while waiting for one, I just bought a whole horn push button from RDent ($70?) and inserted in the horn right where the center cap goes.   Fits perfectly and looks nice, so i'm in no hurry for a replacement, especially if over priced.   However if someone has one, i'll take it.
