So far, the arm is on the floor.
I still have to remove the bolt. I cut it and drill it, but still not good.
I have to drill bigger but just can't do it now.

Old steering will be replaced by a stainless one, as soon as I will succeed to remove it

The bends were a little bit different from mine.
I guess all cars aren't the same.

I’d like to change the bushing, but I’m afraid I need to remove the steering wheel from inside?

Looking great Domi! That's quite a difference in the air deflectors.
