Spline count varies as you guessed.

That link is very helpful, thanks. It looks like I have a 48 spline.

 

Moto-Lita is the original wooden British steering wheel company

You can also wooden wheels at Exmoor with adapters for your 48 spline, probably not original Moto-Lita though.

Great, thanks for the link.

 

That Exmoor one is great.

 

Update...ended up getting the Exmoor Trim wooden steering wheel and couldn’t be happier.

 

Does a Momo or Nardi/Personal require an adapter to work on my 1988? From the previously sent link, I believe I have a 36 spline shaft but wasn't sure if an adapter is required.

 

Yes, Momo makes adapters for both 36 and 48.

 

anyone out there who can recommend a site or dealer where my daughter can buy her boyfriend a
Boss Evander Black EXT 90073 steering wheel for under £200 for his old Defender?

 

A bit over £200, but I bought this one and love it.
