Default Quick release steering wheel advice

Hi All,
My V3 STI wheel is looking a bit tired now so I'm going to fit an aftermarket one & I fancy fitting a quick release whilst I'm at it. Iv been looking at Lifeline, but there are a few different ones. I'd like toknow from someone whose done it what quick release, steering wheel & hub combo works best & the best supplier.
Thanks, Richard.

I have a lifeline quick release (none wired version) on my car.
It's by far the lightest one out there though it is pricey.

Dead easy to install (bolt on) and use. Great security feature too.
Bought mine from Demon Tweaks.

What wheel & boss do you use with it & is there any problem with the wheel position?
Thanks

probably a stupid question, but how do these actually fit? do they bolt on or weld on?

Any idea which boss & wheel work well with these, & is the lock they sell worth getting too?
Thanks
