Wink Pics of Works Bell quick release/Sparco steering wheel installed!

Some pics of the quick release installed and Sparco Mugello 330mm, I know the yellow accent on the wheel kinda throw it off the theme but I got of my boy for a little fee but still waiting for the other steering wheel so this Sparco will work for now. Man all I can say is I loved this mod, makes a better driving experience maybe because of the billet aluminum quick release and hub acts as a counter weight I don't know but in turn this made the steering wheel felt really good and heavy in a good way and a lot lighter than the bulky stock wheel and best of all it this mod really spice up the interior. Can't describe the feeling until you got one for your car and you know what I mean. I don't why but when I have my stock wheels, I tried to get it center but I can never get it and it really bothers me so when I put the quick release and the Sparco wheel on and played with it the steering wheel now is dead center. Now all I need is a Works Bell lock to secure the hub after the release of the steering wheel and this will be a good theft deterrent and a piece of mind.

+1 for modding but I think I'll keep my steering wheel. Audio/nav/bluetooth is just too important to me, I suppose that's being superficial lol

As you guys can see, the only thing he loses is the audio and cruise control option. No blue tooth since he does not have the NAV. Looks real good, but not my cup of tea either. I would consider doing that to a Civic or Integra. But great job man

If it's an '06 (I think it is), you don't need Nav to have Bluetooth.

OP: Looks cool, but like others here it's not my "cup o' tea".

Here is how my interior is going to look like when it is done. I was inspire by the interior of this 350Z so blue so fresh so clean. Now just waiting to reupholster my Brides bucket didn't want the red this would clash with my whole theme and the Personal steering wheel with the blue stiching accent to arrive.

Looks good, although not very functional. Even with the steering wheel left on, the car can't be stolen unless it's towed away.

All my friends that have gone with an aftermarket steering wheel have loved it. The Personal steering wheel is going to look nice in your interior.

Which hub adaptor is that made for?

Exactly once you go aftermarket steering wheel and never look back. The hubs is kinda universal for Honda application but this hub will work on S2000,RSX,EP3 and such.

Yeah and a few of them have made the comment that its their favorite modification out of everything they modified! Thanks for the info about the hub,..i've been thinking the honda hubs should be universal for the most part. I'm back and forth about going through with an aftermarket steering wheel.

So first Spoon Calipers, and now this Sparco steering wheel? Everyone is hot as usual, I like the flat bottom (aka RS4 steering wheel), and the thumb area looks comfy too.

What shift knob is that?

why would you get rid of your airbags? First the most important one (frontal) and now the two side ones?? The grip design on the wheel is cool though.

No lights on for me cause it comes with the resistors and wiring kit to keep it from coming on.

dont be paranoid... every car can be stolen without a tow truck
its just a matter of how hard the thieves want the car

but very nice steering wheel... I've always loved sparco steering wheels, but bluetooth/cruise control/ audio was too important to me

looks good tho!

Have been waiting for the personal steering wheel to come in cause the one I want is blue stich and blue horn button especially with the 350mm size no one stock them so finally it comes in today and it is alot sexier than the Sparco wheel with the blue stiching it really compliments the Works Bell hub/quick release and overall the blue theme. Can't wait to get this on.
