STEERING WHEEL REPLACEMENT
I want to replace, the MOMO airbag wheel in a my 01 v7 sti.With something more sporty, as the MOMO is horrible.It needs to be compatable with my car, so i will probably need a boss if it is aftermarket. I have looked around but no joy so far.

If you do a search on here there are routines that people use to ensure the airbag will not go off.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE FOLLOWING IN ANYWAY IF YOU DO IT, IT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
I just undid the bolts holding the the airbag bit into the steering wheel (one either side IIRC ) you need a special star shaped tool for this. The airbag module then pops out you then just unplug it. Then you can undo the bolt and remove the wheel.

Scoobylav: so does your "airbag" warning light stay on all the time? And will your passenger airbag still work?
Those were the two things I was told would be a problem by a local Momo dealer, and they rather put me off doing it to mine.
Do you have any pics of yours with non-airbag wheel fitted?
You can mail 'em to me if you can't post 'em or don't want to, or I'll post 'em for you.
Thanks.
