M Tech Steering Wheel Install: Do I remove this?

[Dex.e30]

Do you have any other dimensions for the washers and screws? I'm hoping to install my MT2 on Wed and would like to have the parts ready to go. TIA

You need a washer found on the steering column of non-airbag cars, or you can add the extra washers yourself like Nando metioned above.

Part number 4 : 32-31-1-120-260

Also, the stalks will be too close to the wheel, apparently the stalks for airbag cars are different from non-airbag ones. And you need to be sure that you line them up right when putting the wheel back on, or your turn signal will not turn off when you finish turning. If you wanted to be perfect about it, you would need non-airbag stalks so they were stock length from the wheel, and you could lock the wheel with the key out of the ignition.

Good luck!

People say you can gently bend the stalks for added clearance.

I found out non airbag stalks will be *too* far away

Using a 13 button OBC stalk from a non-airbag car. works perfectly fine, I just need to bend it a little bit.
