Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone has a cruise control setup with an aftermarket steering wheel? I installed a sparco torino racing seat and an M2 roll bar and now I can't move the seat all the way back. I road race about 5 times a year and now my steering wheel(stock) is too big, so every time I turn my hands hit my legs. I want to get a sparco or a momo steering wheel but I wasn't sure what I could do with the cruise console on the steering wheel. Thanks for the help in advance.

You should be able 2 get one with a few buttons on it and you can hook them up 2 whatever you want.

I would think it is possible... just a little engineering on your part.

Forum Member, GFelber, adapted his Sparco to work with the OEM cruise switches: http://www.purplemantis.com/RX-7/ste...el_install.htm

Thanks for the replies, purplemantis has exactly the setup I'm looking for...."ask and ye shall receive".

too bad the mazdaspeed adapter is gone, i wonder if anyone else makes such a thing

gfelber

No, not for FDs. Flyin' Miata (http://www.flyinmiata.com/store/prod...c=31&updept=28) has an MS adaptor for the Miata which may work, but I don't know of anyone who's tried it.

I've installed a standard MOMO hub on my Miata which has a clock spring mechanism that looks indentical to the FDs. I put some pics and a link to that on the FD steering wheel install page. Still working on the text. I think the MOMO adaptor would work fine on the FD and it's a helluva lot cheaper and better built at $60 (MS was something like $180).

You remove and then paint them:

Has anybody thought about using a Mazda Protege 5 steering wheel? They look very similar to the last production model's wheel and they have the same three cruise control buttons installed on them.

I have a Nardi steering wheel hub with 3 buttons for my crusie control...
works good...

Hey when you guys replaced the steering wheel using the momo hub, what did you do with the clock spring? I didnt want to cut it, incase I wanted to put the stocker back on, so I just tucked it underneath the dash for now.

Also do I have to take apart the dash to remove the airbag light or not?
