Hi Mate. What's condition like? Does it come with airbag?
Can you pm me some pics please?
Thanks

Not that simple with the pug electrics. The two types are incompatible.
Multiplex steering wheels have clip on air-bags .. there are small squarish holes on the back to unclip the airbag. Pre are bolted on with round holes. For a 2003 HDi you will definitely need a MULTIPLEX wheel ...
And yes, they look fine in a 1.4 Style ... I swapped ours out a few years back. Changed the gear knob and gaiter for leather ones as well (ebay!)
