the one on the right is a stock MK2 none adjustable lower half.

Front left looks like a MK2 adjustable lower half

Rear left looks like a MK2 top and bottom.


What column do you have.

This part of a seven nearly always looks crap as the shroud doesn't meet up with the dash, a single tube with a steering wheel on the end of it with switches elsewhere looks far better

Bit of a mystery there Jas :confused:

Wish I was close enough to pop in & have a gander :(

I have no idea how many different types of column & shroud were used on the sierra !!

I'll keep an eye in the breakers mate, you never know, I might come across another complete Sierra steering assembly ;)

:D :D Quality!!


My donor came with the non adjustable shroud, so im guessing non adjustable?

Yeah it wouldnt be so bad if one of the other covers fitted it, but they dont, so hey ho. I do have the column out of the p100, but there is no key to get the barrel out of the ignition, and I really need the steering lock for IVA.

Fabby, didnt someone make their own shroud using a plastic sweet jar? Im sure it was Dogwood said he had?

Seen that Carl, hoping to do something like that for the Mx-5 Dashbaord to incorporate it into a combined scuttle / dashboard giving the scuttle a built in areoscreen while using the Mx5 dash built into the scuttle / dash. Giving a shape similar to the MNR car. If you see what i mean......
GKD Legend did the same with a BMW cluster, works very well IMO:

Jas

I changed a Sierra lock the other day without the key ;)

Twated the little detent pin in with a pin punch. Prised the lock out of the housing slowly, slowly .... Once it was part way out, I was able to turn the lock assembly to the no 1 position & pull the rest out with ease :)

New lock just popped straight in as it should , jobs a good un :cool:
