Hi listers,

Has anyone on the list fitted a 13" diameter leather Moto-Lita or Lecarra
steering wheel to their TR6 (or TR5/TR250 or TR4)? I wonder if the smaller
diameter would look 'odd' in the car or perhaps even make getting at the
column switches awkward? (My car has a turn signal switch, headlight switch
and O/D switch on the column).

If anyone has any thoughts I'd greatly appreciate some info. Thanks in
advance.

FWIW, I'm referring the to a flat rim wheel like the stock wheel, not the
dished rim wheel both companies offer. Also, the later TR6 had a stock
14.25" dia. wheel (vs. the early model's 15" dia. wheel). But the adapter
for a Moto-Lita or Lecarra wheel is about 5/8" longer than the stock hub it
replaces.
