My car has a Sierra column and a mountney wheel. I didn't build it but I suspect it was the SVA wheel.

you can have a Mountney wheel on for SVA as long as you cover the centre and bare metal arms that come out fromt he centre of the wheel with an SVA pad.

Mine passed OK like that as I had made up an ali plate with ears on it then glued about 8 layers of exercise mat on top of it before covering in vinyl. The ears then bend around the spokes to make it a "permanent" pad. That passes on the grounds there is " a degree of protection ...by absorbing driver/wheel impact" and providing there is a deformable/dismountable section betweewn the rack and the steering wheel.
HTH. Cheers, Pewe

PS have a pattern for the ali plate somewhere. If you U2U me yr email I'll send over dimensions.
