Default Electric Steering

I see the reference to installing electric steering on several posts so I would like to share or you might say re-share this experience. I just removed an electric steering unit from my car that was installed by the previous owner. Why? I didn't like it because it wasn't meant for the car and was not securely enough mounted. Although it made steering much easier, it didn't feel right. If you choose to install one you need to keep this in mind. There is very little room under the dash. Not an impossible job but certainly a challenge. If you choose to install one, go a high performance route for one that belongs in a car like the cobra. I am expecting to see a move towards high performance electric racks in the future that eliminate the under dash unit. This is what the one under the dash looked like in my car. Monstrous plus there was a large controller box.
