Default 6LE-what happened with ZR1 steering wheel?

I read on the build thread for Marks new car, that they were attempting to make a ZR1 steering wheel work in the fourth gens.... did anything happen with this (Or the red car for that matter, I was excited)? I hate my stock whel more than anything but Im not quite ready to give up the air bag. I knowthis topic of steering wheels comes up every once in a while, but after 20 years of fourth gens someone has to have a solution!

When you say ZR1 do you mean 06-10 GM corporate wheel?

I think it would look out of place.

I guess so. I like the three spoke, smaller thicker design.

I got bored and bought a Grand National, lol. We just bought a 2002 Camaro SS to get back into modding though. Still got the wheel. Making and adapter to bolt on what no problem, problem is getting the air bag to work or just making a delete for it...

Deadish... Motor/blower/etc... is going in Brian's car.

I sold the rest off last year (was going through a divorce, just didn't want to deal with building a car so I bought the 1987 Grand National).

We'll still make the products on the rendering in the red car though and then probably eventually make one...

Wow that's actually a sad story. Sorry to hear. Hopefully you guys can come back strong with the new project, and less importantly, make the zr1 wheel work!

Since its the generic corporate wheel, make an adapter (airbag delete of course) and a list of cars we can get the wheel from, and I'll take one

My biggest issue is the airbag light. Annoys the hell out of me.

Simple fix to that. Pop the cluster out and take out the bulb.

Is there a bulb for that? Or is it a little led?
