Has anyone used a steering wheel extension to help see the guages with a smaller diametersteering wheel? I saw this on a website yesterday while I was surfing for a new steering wheel, and was just wondering if it really worked.
I am 6'4" and as much leg room as I can get and still easily see my guages is the goal.

I'm 6'4" too and have a heck of a time getting her into first without lifting my leg over my head first. I would kind of like to keep the stock steering wheel and add a spacer to move it further out from the dash. Anyone tried this?

Renegade Hybrids Makes 2 different sizes. I have the shorter one in my car w/ an unknown lil steering wheel. It's still tough to see the top of the tach (and the turn signal indicators...) Makes the driving position much more comfy for me.

I just looked at the one listed at Renegade, it is a 3" extention and is listed at $165.

I fitted a 3 spoke wheel from an '78SC to my '71. The SC wheel has a built in extenstion that brings the wheel back several inches. Not a simple bolt on but it does work.

Im 6'1, I have a Momo Competition wheel with a 3inch Momo extension on it, I like it because my seats all the way back and my knees no longer hit the wheel (as bad), but I had to rotate my tach 90 degrees CCW to see redline, basically the wheel is in the way of the top of the gauge.
