R50/53 Aftermarket steering wheel
Aftermarket steering wheel
Lets see those aftermarket steering wheels. I'm thinking about swapping mine out just because isn't so pretty. I like the OEM three spoke too, but mine is a two spoke, so I'm up for a custom factory 3 spoke or aftermarket. Will I get any airbag codes if I swap to an aftermarket?

I used to have a Martini edition MoMo mod 02 --- got it back in the day from a print edition Demon Tweeks mailorder catalog.
Should have never sold it!
I was going to keep the stock 3 spoker in my R53, but I just don't like it as I find it too chunky and a bit restrictive as well because the damn spokes are so large.
I recently got a Sparco 215 that will be going on after I get the proper hub.
The 2 spoke rally style wheels are a favorite of mine.
In leather, not alcantara.
Nice deep dish and plenty of space for hand placement,
install example:
Well, it ain't a cool offshore wheel but it's comfortable, and has a little extra room to swing my legs past.
Sorry, no in car photo's yet.

And as for removing the airbag...I drive a motorcycle most of the time (no airbags)...see what I did there..! I've made it 68 years without one, I'll be ok.
