Steering Wheel - Can I move it closer

I would like to move my steering wheel closer about 3-6cm.

Is there any easy way to do this?

Is there an adjustable boss kit or spacer kit available?

Yes there are steering wheel spacers available, assuming you are running an aftermarket boss kit and steering wheel already

Ebola, where abouts in AUS are you?, the reason I ask is that I turned up a spacer out of alloy for my wheel . If you are in Brisbane i would be only 2 happy to turn you one up. the other alternative is to buy a wheel with a larger dish

Thanks for your replies...

I'm in Sydney, & using a non standard wheel.

Grump, How much would you charge for a spacer?

Hammer , looks like I'll be in Sydney later in the year with all my tools. Could be a good excuse for a dodgy day at your place.

hehe, sounds like you crazy kids do a lot of this...

Grump, that would be brilliant!!! I'll go and sort out all the dimensions. May be a few days because the car is in the process of bring resprayed. Let me know when you are in Sydney and I will have to organise a case of beer.
