My understanding is they don't list one for the 1st gen but the 2nd gen one will work. Not sure how well it deals with the turn signal canceler though.

to the OP I would suggest a quick release hub. Looks good and added security. I have the NRG quick release "short" hub and I have it only MOMO tuner and it look great.

Plus for those times I am forced to park in the street I have the added security. If those bastards want my car, they have to tow it.

this is the hub...



and the MOMO Tuner in Silver...which matches my grey/silver interior perfectly...

I bought the wheel online on EBAY..I think like $150...and the NRG is pricy maybe around $75-80? I forget.

but like I said..the best advantage is the added security. Way better than an alarm. Unless they want your radio or something. No wheel no taking of the car...makes it very much worth it IMO.
