You EF-and onwards owners wouldn't know you, you've got scarebags stuck in your bus sized steering wheel.
When I managed to get a smaller MOMO (factory style, with cruise pad and woodgrain ;)), it completely changed the feel of the car, so much better to drive.


f**k off bragger :evil:


I want a MOMO wheel for my ED. I already have the offset cruise buttons.

Marshall,just spoke to my young son,who issues RWCs,and he says there is no issue with steering wheel size. The car's insurance company,could possibly have an issue with it though.


sweet! thanks mate :D

lol does he feel like doing a dodgy rwc on my car?

and to all those that reckon small steering wheels are rice, small wheels rule!

Ooohh, sexy woodgrain... oooh, so small and sporty...
It's only slightly larger then an aftermarket sports steering wheel a mate has in his EB.
And it looks factory :P

Still want to get a factory cruise pad for it, although I don't mind the MOMO one.
That wheel has history too... used to be in a supercharged 5L EB Ghia, owned by an AFF admin ;)
Never seen a MOMO thats as small as this, I like to think it's a one off lol

edit: That pic is from my old car, post-accident. Note broken glass :P

Fairly sure you need to be able to see all gauges?
