steering wheel question *aftermarket*

Okie dokie, I'm lookin for a specific type of aftermarket steering wheel that I have no clue who makes it or what it's called..

This is going to sound pretty weird I assume, and I assure you I don't want the wheel for "Fast & Furious" looks, but it's the only reference I have..

In 2 fast 2 furious, the steering wheel that was in the Eclipse Spyder wasn't a circle, it was more like a half circle with the lower part of the wheel flattened.

While I do want an aftermarket wheel for nice looks, I'm 6'2" and the stock wheel literally sits on my legs/knees.

If anyone can point me to what those are called and where I can get them for a non-"fast&furious" price gouging I'd be grateful.. Thanks!

Sparco makes a couple of those:
Extreme- http://www.upr.com/products/?id=3630
Trium- http://www.upr.com/products/?id=4347

don't think you can drive very well with them but its your flava.
