Default Steering Wheel - MOMO, Sparco, whatever? need some hints

Dudes,

I want to get rid of my 96 steering wheel, the center piece is sort of falling apart... so I want to do it "with some sort of style", I've already done the ultrasuede mod (red) and I like the 'kind of sport but not ricer" look.

I've been wondering about momos and sparcos because they're easy to find in Brazil, but feel free to suggest anything that sells at ebay.

It's a black B5, what would look good on it?

a stock new one from like a b5 s4 or an 01 a4. thatll look good. and it may be cheaper cause you wont have to buy a hub adapter or anything like that. plus an airbag is nice to have lol.

'01 won't work, different sized spline.

Get a '97 wheel if you're looking for OEM, or a Nardi wood grain wheel would look nice on black. I know neither are what you're looking for but it's almost 1 and I'm going to bed.

I have a Nardi for sale.

Anyway, you'll need the hub adapter like joenelson stated. Also if the steering wheel isn't airbag friendly, you'll have to run without airbag and modify the sensor to prevent airbag light from going on.

my airbag light is already on lol.

About the hub... I donīt care much about it, also donīt care much about the airbag. As my center piece is totally loose I have no faith in that airbag.

Kriptonic, Iīve sent you a pm.
