I got a quick release hub. Its not that hard installing it. Just bolt it on to your existing steering wheel hub. Of course you will have to have aftermarket steering wheel and hub. When I go inside the house I take the steering wheel with me. Sometimes it sux when i go to my car, then have to go back inside cuz i forgot my steering wheel :af:

absolutely true :rofl: I did that a few times myself. h:





As for looking for a QR. Make sure you get from a reputable company. Do some research and see if people have problems with "play" or defects. I went through two kinds. Tekniq and SPW. They both work with normal MOMO or Sparco steering hubs.

Tekniq user here. Love it.
Only issues is the horn contacts seem to be faulty, so you'd need to modify them slightly, nothing major at all.
