Actually, if there is a WB hub adapter that is taller than the one you have I'd go that route to add a little length along with the NRG quick release. I take it you simply added the quick release on to the Works Bell hub?
Thanks for the help. I can't wait to get the stock wheel off my FD. I have a wheel for my Rx8 waiting for the Daikei hub.

Sorry no pic's but I installed a
Sparco Model 383 suede 330 mm dia. on Momo 5705 RX-7 hub
mod'd hub for airbag/horn wiring w/ mod cut out 1.125 x 0.25
Mazdaspeed horn button.
Steering wheel perfect size and feel for handling, good for leg clearance, little small with regards to blocking gauges but not bad, little too close to stalks maybe 1/4 inch too close.
Installed airbag bypass using 3 10 ohm (in parallel) resitors to get 10 ohms, installed in under dash airbag plug.
Still looking for bolt on QR/hub setup, maybe Bell Works, issue is a compact hub/QR comb.

Your setup looks great! Can you tell me what the part number was for the Works Bell Hub and where you sourced it please? It looks like some are using a Miata version.

Try contacting a specialty parts shop, I got mine from Aspec parts down in SoCal, they're one of the suppliers for WB. Give them a call or an email and they should source out the part for you
NRG makes a short style Quick release, it's about half the thickness of a regular QR. Only thing is, it doesn't have ball bearings like the normal ones and uses a type of locking mechanism instead, still works though

After I removed the clock spring I wired up the horn, put a resistor for the airbag and wired up the cruise control (still not sure where I will mount the controls).
I should know if everything works in a couple of months when all the work is done.
