Still thinking about that one!

Although it's only 3 holes to drill, and the centre point has been thoughtfully marked out by the manufacturer, so what could possibly go wrong?

i would mark it and check it like 12 times, and then drill tiny pilot holes. and if it goes tits up, they are "weight saving holes lol

Here's my latest acquisition in the quest to try and achieve it (and with a cage in my case!);

I was definately suggesting with cage. And it's not going to be me that acheives it, seeing as I don't have one anymore lol

Steering wheel looks lovely, I'd holesaw the middle to save an extra few grams :cool:

Colin, word of warning, when drilling it wear a respirator or particle mask! Carbon fibre particles have the same effect as abestos to the lungs.

and, if you're not a pro at drilling it, I would give it to someone else to start with tbh, too much money there to 'have a bash' at it

Its piece of pish to drill TBH Mark, you have to start small though, 3mm onto 5mm then onto bigger. Next to no pressure at all (I use a pillar drill as its loads easier) & the bit will find its way through :)

I wouldn't like to try it on a reverie wheel though, and I've done it a few times before.

Pah, its all the same stuff. Only difference is the price/shape IMHO.

The way I see it is its only the same as taking a hammer to say a £30k car.
