We haven't actually USED one, but I know it fits, and plan to swap it out
in the near future. I don't know the actual dimensions, but our
NON-power-steering 1982 Westy has a steering wheel that is approximately
48" across.

The Jetta steering wheel is the more common 16", and plenty torquey to turn
our van (IMHO). I like the feel, soft rubber, and lightly ribbed for
driving-pleasure. :) Leave that alone...

I want a better steering wheel!  Mr. Bulley mention in his
recent post that he uses a 1985-92 Jetta wheel.  (Do they
look/feel nice?).  Any others out there?  I like the wheel
on my BMW best of any i've used, but it may be a little
small.
