If you are intending to install the power steering yourself it might be
of interest to investigate if you can convert an existing system
yourself. Apparently you need a completely self sustaining system that
does not require the main overall control unit in the car.
I have heard that the power steering from an Opel/vauxhall Corsa is
often used by EZ and the likes, but there should be others. I presume
one could look at the smaller Japanese and Korean cars like Toyota,
Nissan, Suzuki, Honda, Chevrolet, Hyundai and perhaps some of the small
French and Italian cars: Fiat, Peugeot, Citroen, Renault.
See if you can also introduce a collapsible section in the steering column.
