Default Steering wheel up grades

Does anyone know the kit that Speed Inc used in the Sunset Orange Camaro to get rid of the stock wheel.

just buy an install kit from what ever wheel you use. take all the crap off the steering column up to the steering lock. then grind the column down untill you can fully bolt on your new wheel. works like a charm every time(ive done it that way on 2 cars)

About how much weight to be saved with getting rid of the stock wheel? I know it probably isnt a whole lot, but every little bit helps.

Not really concerned about the weight, the stock one just looks like ***.

I just did mine yesterday, ripped out my grant wheel and installed a billet specialties. looks great! rip all the plastic stuff out until you get to metal, cut 3/8" (with the billet specialties kit) off the plastic of the column.
