I ended up making my own adapter. I cut the original steering wheel hub off my trashed stock wheel, it was just riveted on, then made an aluminum spacer that has the bolt pattern drilled and tapped on it for the stock hub, then drilled and tapped for the 6 screw wheel mount. (actually did 12 so I could make fine adjustments for centering) I made it slightly longer to get the wheel closer to me, just a comfort thing. All the turn signal cancel stuff stayed with the original hub, and would work if my turn signal lever cancel piece wasn't broken from a PO.
And please no wise cracks about my blingy wheel. It was a surprise birthday gift from my girlfriend, and feels very nice. Attached image(s) ![]() ![]() |
