Quick release steering wheels...

[rixge]

In view of theft prevention, its my intention to fit the above. Has anybody fitted/ or had fitted,this devise ? If so what type. Any comments appreciated .

Try a Snap-Off adapter, details at www.tekniqauto.com/US/snapoff/SOFaq.htm

The main fiddly bit can be getting the right boss adapter.

Bear in mind that it will extend the steering wheel out from the steering column so you may need longer fingers to reach the indicator stalk. However it worked well for me. I actually only wanted to extend the steering wheel position out by an inch and got some useful security as a bonus.

Is it an item you would fit yourself or would you get a greese monkey to do it ? roughly how much for the items ?

Depends which wheel you use..ie whether or not its dished or flat. Dont expect any discounts from your insurance, but expect several strange looks as you plonk your wheel on the local pubs bar

The Lotus Motorsports quick release Momo wheel, whilst not cheap, is a lovely bit of kit.

Self fit - you need some allen keys.

Puchased from www.motorsportworld.co.uk although I can't find it on their site now. Details are:-

M-SNAP Momo Snap Off Kit £71.11 plus VAT

I shoud clarify that it's fitted on a Noble M400 but should work with any Momo steering boss.
