I bought my car with an NRG quick release and a Personal wheel already installed. I’m not a fan of this setup and want to go back to the car’s original wheel. When I went to install it, first I noticed the clockspring is mangled and I don’t have the right bolt (got an M8x1.25 30mm) but further, it looks like there is a broken bolt in the steering wheel.

Has anyone disassembled one of these wheels? Also, what the heck size/length bolt do I need?

They are Hex head from the factory. If there is a nut/bolt in there someone put it there.

I am not sure on the specifics for the bolt itself.

Minor update; I can confirm that I am a dummy.

The hex "bolt" that appears in the photo is actually inside of the cylinder/clamp that attaches the wheel to the car. So I don't think the bolt is intended to come out, you simply loosen it to remove the wheel without removing the bolt from the cylinder.

I'm waiting on a new clock spring because the PO of my car hacked it up when installing this NRG thing. I'll update the thread when/if I confirm how the steering wheel install works.

Yeah, those clock springs are pretty delicate. I ruined one before even being pretty careful.

I need to get yet another clock spring, either the one I replaced my broken one with was already damaged, or I broke it pretty much immediately.

The SRS light is on and my horn doesn't work, so I'm assuming I broke something...at least it's nice to have the stock steering wheel on the car.
