[s-cars] Three spoke wheel

[Postupack, Jeff]

Hey Wild Bill!

Andrew Postupack just did this mod on our 1993 S4.. So you're gonna see
him tomorrow afternoon, to chat.

He did study the cancelling device retrofit and wasn't satisfied with
the means of mechanical connection. 

He did not perform the hot glue/grafting job for the turn cancellor, and
opted to simply condition himself to manually operate it after the turn.

With that simplification, it's pretty easy to swap wheels.

So, my (much much older;) sister Jean sez she's coming to sfest.  d'oh
and why not since she came to sfest I and after a long search for a
suitable 92 S car replacement and finding nothing, she has sunk five
figures retail into renewing it.  Car looks and runs like new.  She
should get some sort of "Smartest Idiot" award IME.
That said; I'm hauling out some new clear corners I had been saving for
her in addition to a three spoke wheel that I was going to install in my
cabrio but would be best used in an S car for now me thinks.
Will anyone be at the sfest that could lend some guidance on this
install?
I think there is some necessary mod to the turn cancelling necessary??
I think the upper and lower covers have to be switched also.  I thought
I would just install my own off the avant and chase down replacements
later.
I will travel with a good supply of tools and should have that aspect
covered.  What I need is perhaps someone who has done this already.  I
have taken wheels off but not retrofitted.  Unfortunately the wire on
the clockspring I have was cut instead of being unplugged.  Can this be
crimped in?  Is this this more than a 90 minute project?
Buehler?
TIA
