i use an nrg hub and nrg quick release and nrg wheel.
hub - NRG SRK-170H
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HLPMEK6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HLPMEK6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and I used this release.

To get the air bag light off I used a 2.2k ohm to bypass it.

Plus my horn still worked.

also used the nrg hub on my 1st gen s10 and was told i could have used this on the s10 which makes me think it should also possibly work on these cars. its sfi rated approved

So so you had to put an adapter hub plus the quick release on? Does that make the steering wheel sit further back closer to the driver?

i have a momo hub on my car which allows the use of any 6 bolt wheel or quick release (i just have a wheel, no quick release). install the hub in place of your stock wheel then bolt the quick release to that then the wheel. yes it will push the wheel closer to you

i think it pushed the wheel 3/4 to 1.5 inches out at most. i actaully prefered it. also the smaller wheel gave me more leg room ill get pics tomorrow.
