For those with aftermarket steering wheel

I was thinking about putting a Sparco steering wheel in my car but I wondered how that thing is attached to the hub. It doesn't look like it is screwed, is it easily removable once it is installed? I was looking at the orange FD with a sparco steering wheel, from a magazine, I think it is Turbo or something like that. That is the wheel I want.

Does Sparco makes adapter for our car to install the wheel?

Thanks a lot for any input

i have a momo steering wheel, and from my understanding the hub will work for momo or sprarco. those silver allen screws around the sparco sign is how the steering wheel is attached to the hub. as far as the hub is concerned i used a second gen hub it worked with a little modification. to modify check out www.miata.net i think thats the site, it took about an hour or two to install. and i am not sure if the mazdaspeed adapter will work with the sparco (i don't see why not). the mazda speed is supposed to help easily install the horn and get rid of the air bag warning light. i'm not using the driver or passenger airbags so i think i'll bypass the airbag light or something, i don't know what i am going to do yet, for now my airbag light is flashing ( got used to it).

A 2nd gen hub adapter from Momo works fine for a Momo wheel. As for the light, I just cleared the code from the computer, and it never came back... I'm using the Momo F1 Concept wheel, it's faux carbon fiber, but it looks good and let's me keep my NOs, er... my horn... yeah, that's it...

Here is a pic of the Sparco Flash 3

I already have it installed in my car using the Mazdaspeed adapter from Corksport.

Sorry here is the pic

Momo and Sparco have the same mounting holes and the Mazdaspeed hub adapter kit from Corksport will made install of the wheel a breeze.
