Had a job to do on replacing my steering lock on the golf and on removing the assembly pulled this off

next to it is a spare coloumb from the T25 and in this next pick

it fits real nice, not checked to see if I need all the length on the sleeve below the taper (not needed for the integrity of the adaption) but it allows all the later vag etc wheels to fit .
If in a scrappys then old wheel off (no power so airbag ok) a pair of vice grips to fit under the slight ridge and a 2 leg puller to grip the back of the grips and drag it off..
