Just to let you know before you remove your steering wheel..... It is illegal to remove a steering wheel with an airbag and replace with another one that does not have an airbag.... So make sure whatever wheel you buy it has airbag capabilities, cause it is a REALLY big fine for that.

In addition to the huge *** fine isn't it a federal offense to remove your airbag equipped steering wheel since the federal gov't is the body requiring your car to have it?

what ever you go with, it will be expensive, as air bag junk isn't cheap....if u know anyone (or u yourself) who has been into an accident where the air bag deployed, it costs close to $1000 to replace......so just going off that, wheel with airbag won't be cheap.

Agree with OzRally02..
The Momo steering wheel is very nice but I'm also not sure of the price.
Good luck.
