    GTS steering wheel repair

    Hey guys, had a quick look, but not a very good one as I'm badly pressed for time at the moment. Looking for some info on who does steering wheel repair? One of my GTS steering wheels is broken and flops like a dead fish. I have heard they can be repaired? Thanks in advance.

    The new Rare Spars repros are due out soon and may make repairing older ones uneconomical. The early thick spoke ones will be worth repairing but the later thin spoke is what Rares are making.

    Are these the ones that are suppose to be a better copy than the ones they have now?
    I think I read that the current ones leave a lot to be desired. I will be looking for one soon and if there is a better one coming I will wait.
    Thanks,
    Cameron.

    Yes, these are repros, not alternatives.
