stock momo steering wheel?



Ok according to this brochure, a 91 Turbo II came with a Momo steering wheel standard. Does anyone on here actually have one? What does it look like? Post a pic if anyone can find it.

i mean yeah what makes it different from the three spoke 88 T2 wheel? I recently replaced my trashed 3 spoke leather wheel on my 88 T2 with a 3 spoke leather wheel from some kind of 91 (probably not turbo). It looks exactly the same.

And the leather ones are all pretty much the same as my 88 GTU's 3 spoke wheel, except the GTU has like a rubber rim.

No, it is a 3 spoke leather wheel, but the location and shape of the spokes is slightly different than the 88-91 non turbo wheel.

That and it has MOMO stamped at the bottom of the horn pad.

i guess that MOMO logo could be easialy missed as the 88 three spoke wheel had MAZDA stamped at the bottom where the MOMO is on the 89+.
