yes it does

make sure you put the old wheel straight before you take it off
then just put the new wheel on straight, the splines are quite far apart so you'll know when its in the same position as the old wheel.

Dammit, i was gonna ring him and ask for exactly that! Forgot to do it today!

Would have snapped his head off for that money too!

Are the R32 wheels a straight fit with the LCR airbag??

i've got a R32 steering wheel in my '00 18 20VT, its a straight fit.
There's a mark on the steeringwheel center, and the splines ware it goes on, so only a dummy can fit it off center.
it's about 5-10 min work:

Looks great mate! Nice touch on the 'S' badge too. If I ever go down this route, I've got somebody who will make me a nice 'R' (as in, Cupra R) badge to go there :)
