Aftermarket Steering wheel, S4, what fits?

[rjjuge]

I am guessing that any wheel for a camaro/firebird or a wheel with a hub adapter for a camaro or firebird will fit?

THanks

Rob,

No, a Camaro or Firebird adapter will not work. Are you wanting an airbag wheel like this:
www.lotusenthusiasts.org/Downloads/FAQ/WheelInstall/Default.asp

or a non-airbag wheel?

IIRC, there is a Momo adapter that fits an Isuzu Impulse that will work for Momo wheels although it's not a great fit. There are a couple of other owners I believe who have come up with other options but I don't remember what they were at the moment.

I also have some of the adapters left from our Group Buy shown in the link above for any of the Raid airbag wheels and I think they can be adapted to the non airbag wheels.

Contact me off list if you would like more info.

How much is the airbag wheel? I don't really want an airbag, but if it's cheap enough.... my horn buttons have gone south and i NEED a horn...

If you just want to do it on the cheap, I've got an OEM wheel I'll sell you for $50.

Least expensive Raid airbag wheel was $450 plus $180 for the adapter kit which included all the wiring, bolts and fasteners needed for the conversion.

Is the wheel still in good shape? Mainly I need the horn buttons to not be broken. Where are you, how would you ship, and do you take paypal... my email is [e-mail]

There's a chap in the states called "Claudius" who advertises on LEW as a Lotus specialist. He can make up bosses for steering wheels.

This is how I managed to put the Momo Millenium steering wheel on my GT3 (The standard Momo bits are slightly different from the comercialy available ones.)

Have a look on my owners page. Nick Nunn GT3

He did a very nice job on the boss.

Nick,

How much was it? Any pics of the adapter?

Thanks,
Jim

Rob,

If you just need the horn buttons I'll give them to you. I was wanting to blow up the airbag anyway. :

Thanks!

I can't look up how much the boss was or send you a pic as I'm working abroad at the moment.

I think it was around $300 and I presume it was machined alloy. Email the chap in question and I'm sure he will help you. www.lotuspbc.com/

I'm fussy yet was very pleased with the finished item.
