    There is no aftermarket wheel with an airbag, right?

    From what I have read, no. However, with the new Elise, it may be possible to switch an airbag unit out from an Elise, which is much more attractive. Whether that actually works, I don't know, but I would think the hubs would match up.

    Did your car originally have an air bag? If so, did you put it on yourself?

    Yup, had the same wheel. It's easy to do. JAE has the hub/boss you need to make the swap to any Momo/Sparco/OMP etc...

    I flew into Chicago today and drove the Esprit back home. The car is incredible! The guy that owned it before me was a huge help, he spent over an hour and a half going over things with me, I don't think he wanted to see it leave his home. I will post some pictures when I get it cleaned up, the previous owner did a great job of cleaning it for me, but it rained almost the entire drive home. :~(
