Default Works Bell Boss:- what model do I need?

For a Impreza STI 2005, what model number Works Bell Hub do I need, I have found 3 types. Has to be able to cancel the airbag light too.

1) #115
2) #116
3) #116S

Someone also told me get the #116S as its a shorter boss and wont sit so close to you.

The steering wheel I have in mind is a semi/deep dish OMP/Sparco/Momo.

Thanks for any info.

Hi there have look at RHD Japan,i'm running Works Bell Paddle shifter,which has been equipped with Works bell Boss kit 116.
Now about the yours,i would have look at RHD Japan and there is good description and difference between these three,because you must buy for your car,here is mine difference between these 3 models Horn Couplers( White 3 Prong Coupler = Part Number 114, White 4 Prong Coupler = Part Number 115, Green 5 Prong Coupler = Part Number 116
#9: Two Step Air Bag equipped models will require a U-Turn Harness (Air Bag Dummy Harness)

Hi there

i have 02 WRX(Subaru Impreza Sports Wagon GGA Applied C (Chuki - 10/02-9/03) Eng: EJ20 on RHD Japan),for best i would recommend ask RHD Japan,this company usually will answer on any question within 24 hours,but via weekend not sure,but if its normal week,RHD Japan will answer usually within few hours.

About the model which you are need,best will be contact RHD Japan and all hardware is usually included(Airbag loom or Indicator light delete on some models)without the charge.

All sounds fair enough, Neils fitted some gauges for me ages ago when he was in his old garage set-up, not seen the new place yet.

What steering wheel have you gone for then Jura?

New set-up is nice and there is much space than in old one(in old one he fit for us FMIC and other parts) .

Here is mine new steering wheel,because we are going for Manual Box PPG(we have before 4EAT auto box) and Works bell paddle shifter we don't need anymore.

I went for a Momo 07 which is a slightly deep dish wheel The driving position with that combo is superb

Right then, pretty much sorted on the hub model I need, now comes what wheel to get.
This is where I need some insperation, I definatley want a suede wheel, dished also, but not sure how much of one 60mm or 90mm ish?

The Momo 07 looks great, as does the OMP/Sparco/Sabelt, so some pics posted up would help me lot.

Thanks in advance.

Dave Garrett is selling some in the For Sale section. Also a brand new OMP one was selling in there for a silly price (cheap).

Can I ask how much closer this boss brings the steering wheel. I have long arms anyway and am wondering if I really need a dished wheel.
