Default Steering wheel major problem

Hi all..

I'm pulling my hair out trying to remove this stupud Nardi steering wheel. I have a mom wheel and boss kit ready to fit but after I dismantled the nardi one and removed the centre nut itwont come off. It looks like it has several screws which are screwed from the back inwards and I cant get a screwdriver in behind in order to unscrew....any ideas? Please...I'm close to just taking a sledgehammer to the thing...

Nardi and momo usually have the same type boss, so you should'nt need to change the boss really. Just swop the actual wheel via the 6 screws.

But if you do need to the change the boss, use a steer wheel puller. I would'nt recommend the old fashioned way as the bearing in the column is not the strongest i've come accross.

They are usually torx fitting that thread into the boss. They are tight cos they have threadlocker on them.
