I’d like to put a Momo wheel in my Griff. The column obviously is a Vauxhall - so has anyone else done this this, and if so, will I be needing to buy some form on conversion kit / boss or will the standard supplied Momo wheel come with the necessary fittings do you think ?

IIRC the Griff comes with a Momo Personal as standard - so perhaps the fitting is the same?

If you look at the standard Personal wheel, the top two of the six bolts are horizontal, whereas on a Momo the six bolts are rotated so there's one at the top, still forming a hexagon but moved round a bit?!
Crap way of explaining it, but as far as I know the Personal boss won't fit a Momo wheel - you need a matching £40-odd momo boss.
Moving the boss round to realign the new wheel would bugger up the indicator cancelling - if its like a VW the backside of the boss works the self-cancelling on the indicators as it rotates - may be different on a Vauxhall, sorry, TVR.
Edited to add Momo and Personal are different companies.

I didn't think I was going mad - this guy has a Momo Personal too:

The guy you're on about is selling a Personal wheel. Trust me. Doesn't say momo anywhere on it. If you sell a steering wheel and call it a Personal, no one's interested apart from TVR people.
Sell it as a Momo and you'll have 50 Corsa drivers beating a path to your door.
