momo's aren't cheapno matter which model they come off...

This wheel retains the airbag...

As I said though your XH may very well not have an airbag... You wont know til you unbolt the front thingo...

Cheers,
Tim

Black leather wheels go for as little as $50, perforated for about $100 or so. I picked up my wheel which is similar to a Momo for $250 new on ebay a while back, but theyre selling them for $450 now (different seller).

yeah i dont mind that 1,
i wasn't much of a fan of the 1 i paid for as it said Enzo Styling on it and im trying to keep my ride as far away from having any sort of "rice burner/deigo" feeling to it!
Will any of them steering wheels just go straight on or is there more to installing them?

Cheers

Na these go straight on...

Unbolt the airbag/hornpad, unplug your cruise/radio buttons, undo the big centre bolt (T50 Torx) replace with new wheel and do everything back up...

Cheers,
Tim

if your steering wheel has a LONGREACH badge on it, it dosent have an airbag, if it has SRS AIRBAG on it, then well its got one. lol

Mate that steering wheel looks almost the same as mine but mine is a SAAS wheel.
And you can get boss kits for ea/ed and ef/el falcons through repco or auto one and most other placese like that for around $80.
