Power steering on column.
Has anyone done the power steering conversion on the column and if so what is it like driving ??? , seen a couple of youtube vids using a Vauxhaul corsa power steering motor , thinking of converting my plastic pig , just wondering if is worth converting ???.

The 16V Mini Forum has an old thread of FAQ when using the various Vauxhall Corsa EPS columns which may be of interest.

Re: Power steering on column.
Goff, in the way it seems to work, I believe it's effective, however all the installations in to Minis and Mokes I've seen of this conversion, just my own view, but it leaves a lot to be desired, with the motor unit almost covering the pedals. Might be different in your car.
