Cup Car Steering Wheel installed

Always wanted to do this mod and after seeing a few of you guys do it, I contacted Mike/RSS to have him ship me the wheel and hub. First of all, I got to say that dealing with Mike was an absolute pleasure! He even checked up on me after I received the parts to make sure that everything was OK.

Here are the pics as taken from my BB so sorry for that.







I love how it feels and even though it blocks the upper part of the rev counter, I feel that I don't mind it because I have a clear view of the redline. The dealer was able to make the horn work even though I still have an airbag light.

Fresh pics of the car as taken today.

Good choice. Makes it very easy getting in and out with race seats thats for sure. I still need to wire up a horn and relay system.

It was your car that pushed me over the edge! It was always simmering in the back of my head but seeing it on your gorgeous RS made me decide there and then.

Looks nice. RSS rocks.
What diameter? 330mm?
What do you plan to do with the airbag light?

Sarum87, smaller diameter and thicker grip. It feels so good to hold instead of the thin factory wheel.

, RSS have been great! I order from the States usually so I've seen it all as far as level of service goes. RSS had me covered since the first PM.

It's a 320mm I think. The light doesn't bother me that much. I heard that using a resistor will get rid of it so until I get a firm response, I'm ok with the light.
