    For those of us older, taller less flexable drivers;

    Allows greater leg room. Totally reversible mod.

    Ugly steering wheel, but makes sense. What make/model? I should get one.

    Says Corse or corsa imprinted on the leather below in the pic. Just got back from a drive. It's a keeper. I do miss the stitching and may have it recovered next winter. Very comfortable, yes ugly , but it's growing on me. When in the drivers seat it makes a neat symmetry with the instrument binnacle which I really like. Found this one on eBay for Momo mount. I bought a Nardi mount by mistake and is available for earlier year cars.

    Bad picture I guess. It really isn't that bad just has a flat spot on the bottom. It's neat to be able to get something out of your pocket while sitting. Couldn't do that before.

    Do you have an extension on the steering column crowndog? That is what solved it for me (Hill Engineering) At almost 6'5 with long legs...gave me that extra room and better elbow position.

    Yes, I have the smaller extension on there from Hill as well. It definitely helped. This was just cheap and a fun try it out sort of thing. I really like the feel while driving. It is the exact same diameter as stock but has the flattened bottom.

    Roger. I've thought about putting that shape on my m3 which is a little more performance-focused.

    Nice! I actually like it mainly because of the need for extra leg room. I bet that this works really well.

    MOMO still makes great looking steering wheels and some are even flat on the bottom. For the purist who want to remain loyal to the brand, they are a great alternative.

    Do you have a specific MOMO model number, I searched over 30 pages on eBay and couldn't fine another one, darn.

    It isn't made by Momo. It has a Momo mount. I think it is made by Corsa. I have another but it has the Nardi mount. The difference is the bolt pattern.

    Also sold by Summit;
    Summit Racing Part Number: GRT-1030
    But again check mounting pattern. I think the Momo has the bolts starting at the 12:00 position.

    I found mine slightly used for $59.

    The two steering wheels that I was talking about from MOMO (not Robert's wheel) is the MOMO Eagle and the Tomcat. However, I do like Robert's wheel and I bet it is cheaper than the MOMO's.
