I'm getting an aftermarket steering wheel, so I went on the SAAS (.com.au) website and looked for an adapter. All sorts of Mitsis, including Cordias, but as to be expected, no Starions :x

They do some sexy polished ones, but I'm not sure whether they'd fit.

I did some checkingg and the Momo part is 6101. And it's designed to fit a Cordia too.

So, if I get a SAAS adapter that's designed for a Cordia, should I expect it to fit a Starion too? And do I need a genuine Momo one if I'm getting a Momo wheel, or will the SAAS one do?

If you have any experiences, feel free to share - I'm going out shopping in one hour :D

Sigma one fits and I bet that the Cordia one fits too.. you can use the SAAS one as long as it has the same bolt pattern. There's a few different lengths too depending on whether your wheel is dished or flat.

Yeah saas boss kit for a Starion is same as sigma, if you ask at a place like autobarn they should know what you need. got mine at autobarn (elizabeth) a guy I know there has a Starion so knew what I needed.

SAAS boss kits are tapped for BOTH standard stud patterns I have a autotechnica wheel on mine because I didnt want to wait for autotechnica boss kit to be ordered in :) , one thing I found that boss kits tend to rub on the steering column trims but they wear in over time, otherwise I guess you could lubricate behind the boss kit as you are fitting it.

Also horn connectors may be of different sizes but that is a simple as cutting off the boss kit ones and putting on larger / smaller ones do this AFTER your sure the wheel fits the boss kit.

Line up the boss kit indicator markings according to the factory steering wheel markings or your indicators will turn off early and late every time you corner.

have fun

Yeah, SAAS have a multi stud pattern, as stated above, have a chat with your local Autobarn tech, these guys are handy to know! Sigma one fitted mine with no problems (no wearing) had a little trouble with horn connector, but a little common sense got that kicking! Be careful not to break your nose removing the original steering wheel! rofl The trick is not to remove the centre bolt\nut all the way, just out as far as it will go without coming off, then pull on the wheel with all your strength! The bolt will stop the wheel from hitting you, then remove bolt and gently remove wheel! The wheel is tight intially so don't be afraid to pull hard! :beer

can i use a saas boss kit for a momo wheel?

yeah as long as the wheel bolts up to the adapter correctly

ie: wheel stud pattern matches boss stud pattern.
saas boss kits do 2 stud patterns smaller and larger on the same unit.

i got a autotechnica wheel from autobarn and a boss kit to suit from supercheap, also supercheap can get a number of covers for the boss kit to replace the crappy plastic sleeve, it's alloy and looks the goods.

SAAS boss kits are solid metal and are powdercoated, so dont need plastic sleeves or boss kit covers.

autotecnica is the one i got, and has a plastic sleeve as OE.
