installing an aftermarket steering wheel
im looking at a steering wheel i got free from a friend who wasnt gonna use it. i think its APC, one of the ones from Pep Boys. how would i go about installing it. i know some cars need an adapter for that kinda thing, but i cant find one for the GC8

just because it's free doesn't necessary mean it's better! granted, the stock momo wheel is a bit larger than some would like, but most APC parts are just...crap. but, hey, it's your car.

sparco makes a hub for the GC8 - but you'll lose cruise controls, signal cancel, and horn. unless you're good with wiring - keep the stocker. anything is better than APC.

have you guys heard of RAPFIX? I think Prodrive has it. It's a quick release hub with a lock.
I would look into that RAPFIX for anyone who is going to install a aftermarket wheel.
Just imagine the look on the thief's face when he is looking through your window and sees' no steering wheel and a locking plate on it
Just my .2cents
TIA
Have fun
