I could be wrong but I'm sure I read it on here when I was researching steering wheels before I bought my DAMD wheel.

I have fitted a hawkeye wheel and also a widetrack blob wheel to a narrow track blob.
no issues with the wheel as its identical but some of the airbags have different connections although you can change the plugs on clock spring or the clock spring itself.

The Hawkeye steering wheel is the same as the MY05 widetrack blob (so May04 onwards) (possibly off black instead of grey)
Again airbag the same from MY05 onwards.
