Great info guys! I will do some research on this stuff and update the first post when I have a minute.
If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?

Thanks eddie! I have made a guess on the years for the Steering Column & Stalk so please correct me if you know more.
If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?

Off-the-Shelf Parts for the Diablo
« Reply #1 on: October 02, 2014, 06:30:17 PM »
We all know Lamborghini used some standard off-the-shelf parts on the Diablo. This post is an attempt to document as fully as possible these parts and make it easier for us to find what we need. I really need everyone's help with this. Ideally, it would be a wiki and if someone wants to set one up, that would be great. I just figured instead of mentioning these parts in one thread here and one thread there, I would try to keep them all in one place. Other lists that may be of interest:

Off-the-Shelf Parts for the Countach
Off-the-Shelf Parts for the Murcielago
Off-the-Shelf Parts for the Aventador

Again, feel free to post any information you have to this thread. I will continue to update this first post as we get additional details.

OEM-compatible replacement parts:
