914World.com _ Member Vendors _ Eccentric spacer for MOMO steering wheels

Posted by: James Adams Jun 17 2008, 10:01 AM

My newest product is a 12mm riser for your MOMO wheel.

When the 911 went to smaller steering wheels, the factory retained the view of the gauges by offsetting the center of the wheel - now you can do the same with your aftermarket MOMO wheel.

This also gives you more leg clearance and spaces the wheel 16mm out.

Comes with mounting hardware.

No, only the MOMO bolt pattern. Dino is different.

I was thinking that Dinos were 5 hole, but that must have been very old ones and Dino and MOMO are the same.

Won't this working be dependent on how tall your are? Got a picture of how this looks mounted? Will my horn still work? I can't drive without my horn.

How does it 'feel' when steering, will it feel like the wheel is going in an oval instead of round when turning?

I'm interested though, closer and more up would be perfect for my body-type and wheel size.

Yes. I used the same offset that Porsche used on the 911 steering wheels. It is a compromise and will not be ideal for all.

The horn still works.

If you stare at it it looks weird. It is the same as any 924/944/968 and '74 to '89 911, so it is not that odd if you are not focusing on it.

Learn something new everyday, didn't know other cars did something similar.

If you can't feel the difference, I may have to give this a try, with my old Dino wheel that has 6-bolts...and if that doesn't fit...oh darn guess I'll have to get a Prototipo biggrin.gif

(Do NOT focus on "it" Daniel-son...Use the force/in a diametrically opposed grasp Don't feel the oval, just the curve...) Does work for the 911 it seems...
