For a start, the EF/EL have a different clockspring to the BA/BFs.

The cruise controls wouldn't function or fit correctly (depends if you have cruise or not).

Steering column cover on EF/EL are a different shape to BA wheel, therefore the BA wheel would look bigger and oversized.

Been there (comparing with an EB wheel), looked at it, tossed BA wheel in cellar.

The BA wheel's nut bit is squared off, while the EB's has teeth and remains circular. Can't remember whether the diameters were different or not?

As for the airbag/horn module for the BA wheel, gotta buy a new one, once the airbag goes off they're buggered (split in half). $$$$$$$

Below are some shots:

Apologies for lack of focus on the EB wheel.

try comparing a BA wheel to a EF/EL wheel. I'll think you will find the BA center thing is very similar to a EF/EL one

just buy the EF/EL xr8 leather trimmed momo wheel for it. They look 100 times better than the ba standard wheel and are very similar to the BA momo xr8 wheel.
