I want to put the Ford Racing steering wheel made by sparco in my cobra. However, it says it only fit FR500's. So what hub do i need to get to make it work? Also where can i buy one of those black plates that cover the front of your steering column when using a race type steering wheel? here's a link to a photo of the steering wheel i am refering to if you don't know which one i mean. Thanks you!.

Just get the normal FR500 wheel and retain your airbag. It is dumb to remove a functioning airbag in a streetcar.

Airbag is a dud anyway, doesn't work. So, why not have a wheel that at least looks good. Mine is also in bad shape anyway.

Why doesn't your airbag work? Just get another one. Hell, I have a pair of SN95 airbags myself.

The FR500 wheels is awesome, and retains the airbag. In some states, I also believe it is illegal to disable the airbags. However, I've not verified that.

When I put on my Sparco wheel I used a MOMO hub. But my Sparco wheel has more mounting bolts than the one you posted. But I would start by looking at MOMO hubs

Thanks for the info guys. I'll check on that MOMO hub. Also, anyone know where to find that column cover plate ?

Do you have a writeup on that? I'm about to do the exact same setup.

FR500 race wheel doesn't fit the MOMO hub, and I couldn't find a hub that would fit it. I'd start looking for something else.
