I think the usual boos kits arent long enough too clear the indicater lever, because the standard steering wheel is so deep.

Yep, You need a super long bosskit. Yeah they make them. Dunno where from or how much. Another trick is to put the indicator stalk in the hi beam position during the day, but at night your stuffed. Also you could try looking for a dished steering wheel.
Good Luck

if your new steering wheel is smaller cut the tip off the indicator stalk, or try heating and bending with a heat gun, unlike most cars the indicator stalk only takes care of indicators, no wires run through it.

I think he wants to know more specifically about the boss kit itself.
Yes, some boss kits will fit and house the steering centre, but the teeth are wrong and hence when you indicate around corners it will remain constantly on (or not even on at all). So make sure the boss kit is correct.
As for the part number etc, not sure of exact details, but momo and nardi are your best bet. Just do a search on their sites or ask around.
Wreckers are quite good also.
Happy drifting

SAAS make a special bosskit for the sprinter which is very long and easily clears the blinker stalk, i know cause i have one. i think i still have the box for it around somewhere so i might try to look for it later. i use a flat momo wheel so it should work for most wheels. you have to order it in tho cause they dont stock them they make them to order.
