    Kinda of dumb question, I have an 1995 F355 with the stock airbag steering wheel. I'd like to install a 6-bolt non-airbag steering wheel. The two HE options from Ricambi are:

    SWA-355-02: for airbag cars
    SWA-355-01: for non-airbag cars

    My car has an airbag but I’m installing a non-airbag wheel, so I buy SWA-355-01, correct?

    No, I believe you need this-

    As I understand it the above would be for 6-bolt momo on an original airbag car.

    SWA-355-02 is for mounting an early OEM non-airbag 4bolt/small pattern wheel to an original airbag car

    SWA-355-01 is for mounting a 6-bolt momo to an original non-airbag car

    I'd suggest contacting Hill Engineering or Ricambi and getting clarification.

    I am interested to see how Jim does with the O2 adaptor.

    I contacted hill about mounting my non air bag OEM wheel ( 4 holes) to my 97 car ( airbag) and they said they didn't have anything for that application.

    It sounds like the OP is using a non OEM replacement (6 bolt) which they should have.

    Not sure what else large to small 4 bolt pattern would be for but I'll find out soon enough!

    Jim - those 4 holes don't appear to be threaded holes.

    But, you could likely modify this if need be to make it work.

    The counter bored outer holes aren't threaded, would use stock hex bolts.

    2nd set in, just in from the counter bored holes are threaded (for steering wheel).

    3rd set in are not threaded, reliefs for fasteners that bolt inner horn pad support to the steering wheel.

    I thought those were the ones you were talking about - my mistake.
