The model year '98 wheel is not that much better.....it does say "Momo" but you can't see it unless you're sat in front of it:
MY '99 onwards was a bit better. I'd like to change my '98 wheel for an aftermarket non-airbag one, but can't bring myself to do away with the airbag......well, OK, wife won't let me!:

No its not a straight change over I have done it on mine. You need to splice the old plug onto the new wheel the connectors are different. I can't remember the orientation now I think they are multicoloured on the my98 wheel but 2 yellows on my97 or vice versa. The orientation doesn't matter but you need to solder and becarefull if it goes off it will blow your face off....yadayada
