Default DAMD steering wheel in a classic??

I used to have one of the DAMD steering wheels in my Hawkeye and wish I'd kept it.

I know they don't specifically make them for classics but surely with a few modifications they could be altered to fit.

Has anybody tried? I don't fancy making a £500 mistake!

If a newage sti steering can be made to fit a classic, then I dont see why an aftermarket would be any different

I've got a new DAMD steering wheel that I've bought that I am willing to sell.

Feel free to make me an offer.

No idea if it fits a classic, if people have managed to fit a newage STi wheel to a classic then this will fit too.

Please see pics below, excuse the bad quality they are from my phone, if you need better ones let me know and I will take some with my SLR.

This is brand new and has never been fitted.
