    Brilliant mate thanks for this, I'll be doing the same. Just bought my 1st Alfa Romeo giulietta, got lots of Alfa problems to sort lol, heater blowing cold on one side , rear wiper is mental. Anyway love the steering wheel mod, definitely getting this done top job thanks

      Glad you enjoyed it. Heater blowing cold I think will be the matrix blocked. Rear wiper is a common problem and will be the wires broken via the tailgate. Remove the rubber sleeve and you will see them. Kits are available to replace the broken wires or just solder if you can. Enjoy your new motor

    If you get into an accident, that stick on badge is gonna suck. I recommend buying a 4C airbag. The Abarth and the 4C use the same airbag design and shape (at least here in the U.S.) so if you switch it over it’ll look much more factory and be much safer too.

      It's just a sticker, similar to what was already on there, not sure on your point really?

      It's a cheapish mod and I think it's better than the horrible standard steering wheel, esp in the QV

      Hi,
      New abarth wheel will not fit. I believe someone has installed a Guila wheel, but not sure if the switches work.

      You mean the airbag only has a single purple connector? Yes that is a single stage airbag, you need a dual stage airbag which has a yellow & purple connector.
