Had to remove my clock spring to use a Momo hub

I finally got around to working on my car again, and installed a momo hub and wheel I bought off of someone on the forum.

I get the hub to fit on I had to remove the clock spring, now it is a PITA to get me turn siginals to shut off, I have to give them just the right amount of pull on the handle, or else they will just keep blinking.

What are other members doing with after market steering wheels to solve this problem?

i don't believe there was anything turn signal related that you had to touch in order to install any aftermarket wheel, as the turn signal actuators are deeper inside the steering column..

This is what I had to remove. I know part of it's function is for the airbag, but I though this was also for the signals...

Am I incorrect?

I have an NRG 2.5 quick release on my VERT. all i did was cut the rectangular peice of plastic and wires for the airbag off. just be careful with wire for horn and it can work. Before this I had a momo hub on the same car.
