No pics I'm afraid as I'm 3 miles from my car as it's tucked up nice and safe in my mums garage.

I've got a Momo Race steering wheel in my S2 and will be fitting a Momo Fighter steering wheel in the FRST. Momo wheels are the bollocks and don't look cheap like a lot of steering wheels can

That looks ace Is the horn push an accessory, and can you fit it to any of the sparco wheels? Some og them have flat centres, and look a bit boring, but have the 2 buttons either side which i want. BTW - is ur dash fury lol.

Tony Turbo
Your dash looks awesome mate - see what you mean about ur wheel, it doesnt quite fit, but by no means horrendous

Here's mine....I'm not too keen on it to be honest and I don't like the flat bit at the bottom

Dave what model is that Sparco? [I want to go for the same one, is it the same as PFNicks??]

Also, do these wheels still work the self cancel on the indicators? And does the boss not bring them further forward so u cant operate the stalks as well?

I have that wheel too, but it needs recovering - easily the nicest Ford one.

On mine the self cancelling doesn't work [although it was supplied with two little studs [you have to drill the boss and but them in the right place] but I never got round to it.

The wheel is further away from the stalks which means you have to take your hand off the wheel BUT having the wheel that bit closer is a massive improvement imo and its worth the sacrifice.
