Product Description

The Sparco 1502073 is a vehicle-specific steering wheel hub adapter (boss kit) required to install 6-bolt Sparco - and compatible aftermarket - steering wheels onto September 1988-1997 Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, and Corrado models. Unlike universal adapters, this hub is engineered to the exact spline profile and fitment dimensions of the factory VW steering column for a precise, rattle-free installation. Its cast iron construction uses a collapsible steel frame that absorbs kinetic energy on impact, helping to reduce force transferred to the driver in the event of a collision.

A Sparco hub adapter is mandatory for TUV approval - Sparco steering wheels are only certified when paired with genuine Sparco hub adapters. The collapsible mechanism makes this hub compatible with originally airbag-equipped vehicles, though factory airbag systems must be removed or deactivated before installation; always verify compliance with local regulations. All necessary mounting hardware is included for a direct bolt-on fit.
