I like it..it matches real nice with the rest of your interior. Got a good price on it too..I know some steering wheels retail for over a hundred bucks.

How does legality work on removing the steering wheel with the airbag? Does that mess up insurance or anything else?
I'm freakin tall, and was wanting to get the steering wheel spacer (kspec I think) and a slightly smaller wheel so my knees can fit under it better, but I haven't because of the airbag issue.
And did you have to get a special adapter hub for it too (I'm assuming you got that on eBay as well?)
Looks sweeeeeeet!!!

Can you get some exact weights on the stock wheel and that one?

Also, can you throw up the links to the sellers or the auction for each. I may just get a cheapy wheel until I can afford the Sparco one I want.

yah, ill get some weights when i can locate a good scale within ounces... the steering wheels shipping weight was 2.7lbs.. so with the box and such.. maybe 2.6.. ill try and get the stocker weighed today..

well without airbags... o well.. if i get into an accident, im not a fan of a seatbelt anyway, so i guess im fuxored... if i was wearing a seatbelt, then the airbags will protect me from slamming my face into steering wheel, but o well.. my body kit has a forcefield on it..

and i just wont tell my insurance about dis .. ill say the horn button has airbag in it, lol

heres the sellers name for the wheel. autodynasty the hub, i needed to modify a bit with the dremel to make it fit right, but OZ bought one for 15 bucks more that fit perfect, so it comes down to wanting to save time or save money.. the seller i bought mine from was autosquare

I like it, I've been meaning to get another wheel (no airbags in my car anyways). But just haven't taken the time to find out what was needed/how much it would cost.
