Default Aftermarket steering wheel?

Can I put one on my 94? I hate the stock one, plus its starting to show wear. I had a Grant GT i believe on a third gen i used to own and i like that one. Maybe one that has a button for nitrous? Post pics if you have aftermarket steering wheels

Yes you can put them on your 94. Use an install kit from a 3rd gen and it works fine. T/A Kid on here has a real nice MoMo wheel with a paddle shift set up on his. Heres a pic

Here's a picture of my steering wheel. It's the momo commando r racing wheel. It's very easy to switch the stock one. Took me 30min to change the stock one out the first time. I can now do it in under 5 mins.

Thanks, one more question though. How is the back of the seat mounted to the bar? Supplier or part # would be great. Welding required? Rick

Looked up that one, the black 4 spoke. How does the foam hold up? What's the weight difference between steel spooked wheels and the aluminum ones?
