Aftermarket wheel and retaining clock spring?
Today I was playing around and decided to try and throw on my new Sparco steering wheel. Up until now Ive had the stock wheel in my FD and never really gave another thought to problems that would arise with the aftermarket one. Well, to install the hub adapter you have to remove the clock spring (which Im sure most of you know). This leaves you having to rig something ghetto up for your horn to work. I was sure this was brought up before, but after a while of searching all I found was an old link pointing to a dakai hub, which I believe are no longer produced. I have found this works bell hub that appears to be the same thing. Before I drop $170+ on another hub, I just wondered if anyone has used this, and if it lets you retain the clock spring and disables the SRS light? Thanks!

I didn't have to do all that with my hub. I got it from Finish Line Performance: http://finishlineperformance.com/sto...cat=272&page=1
I just removed the factory wheel, plugged in the resistor pack for the airbag light, and then ran a ground wire for the horn. I didn't have to touch the clock spring at all.
