The steering wheel spacer for Alfa Romeo Mito is a hub that brings the steering wheel even closer to improve the driving position.
The spacer has been designed for the Mito in all its variants: petrol, diesel, manual, automatic.
Excellent product for those who want a sporty driving position with the steering wheel close together: it is the perfect solution for those who want to bring the steering wheel even closer without using the goblet steering wheel, and keep all the functions of the standard steering wheel active: airbags, radio telephone controls and cruise control.
It greatly increases the feeling of control of the car and driving pleasure.
The original depth adjustment remains functional.
This version was designed to be installed on old Alfa Romeos from the 70s that share the 105 platform.
The spacer replicates the coupling between the steering wheel and the steering column, with the key, and its installation does not require modifications or work on the steering wheel or even on the steering column. Our hub can be disassembled and everything goes back to the way it was before.

Steering wheel spacer for Alpine A110
Sometimes the steering wheel adjustments offered as standard are not enough. It always seems that we can adapt but then using the car every day something is always missing, there is always that detail that we would like to change. "This car is all right, if only you could pull the steering wheel back a little more..."
Now you can: we developed this version of our spacer on an Alpine A110. I'm 1.82 meters but I didn't feel good even with the steering wheel all the way out.
Great for those who want a sporty driving position with the steering wheel close up. It is the perfect solution for those who want to bring the steering wheel closer to the driver without having to use the goblet steering wheel and give up the airbag.

The whole kit can be mounted without modifying the cables inside the steering wheel, because they are already very long.

Steering wheel spacer for BMW 1 Series F20 and F21, 3 and 5 doors.
The steering wheel spacer is a kit that improves the driving position.
The driving position is important: an experienced driver immediately senses when a car hasperfect ergonomics and when it lacks something. There is the same difference that passes between a pair of comfortable, well-made shoes and others of poor quality.
In addition, even if the standard adjustments are many and satisfy most riders , they may not cover 100% all the physical variabilities of people. Some people are very tall, or some have long legs and short arms, and all of this is reflected in the feeling of comfort and control of the car when sitting behind the wheel. It can also become a compelling need.
The spacer was designed on a 2016 M135i purchased new from us and used for 80,000 km in the following 2 years.
All steering wheel controls remain functional, even the paddle shifters (our M135i had the 8-speed ZF) and, if present, the heating of the crown.
The driving position, already excellent on recent BMWs, is further improved.
