I am getting itchy modification fingers already and thought I might try fitting the above into my HB. The steering with its 185 tyres around town is a touch heavy. Not too bad really but apart from the car smelling of petrol (as old cars should) other than the heavy steering it drives/handles like a modern car and I like to tinker so why not.
So far I have found this older info...

and this fella here on the viva club forum has fitted it to his Viva...

I have found out that the columns are here in NZ but prices seem silly. Like about 300 quid for the column alone then I have to buy a piggy back box on top of that. I will continue hunting and try find a cheap one.
So my questions today are;
how cheap are the piggy back boxes now? The ones that allow you to vary the assistance. And where can I get one. Its not at all a common mod here in NZ so I will have to import form Blighty.
What other cars have similar systems, assisted columns, that I might be able to use?
Thanks in advance my replies may be late due to me living in a internet black hole...
