Default New Momo

The interior of my car isn't all that bad considering the age... The factory wheel was a little tired showing some cracking etc. The factory shift boot was worn and the PO had even cut the leather off the top of the **** so I decided it was time for an upgrade.

I like it. Got MOMO wheel, pedals and shift **** in mine. How tall are you? I'm 6'3" and really need to buy the offset spacer.

My wife gave me a Momo Race wheel in a titanium finish and Porsche center horn button. That was last year. This year she sprung for a new short shifter from "online944". It allowed me to keep the original shift lever and I love the outcome of them both.

Another dash cap that's starting to warp badly. New dash sitting in the corner of the garage for replacement. No cracks.

Thanks guys. It's funny how much of a difference it makes. The first couple days I had to keep myself from staring at the wheel while I was driving.

F40, I'm between 5'8" and 5'9" depending on which gas station I'm leaving... So I'm good w/just the hub adapter.

I really hate the dash cap. Looking into my options. I really like some of the ones I've seen that have been covered in suede, leather, etc. Weighing the pros/cons of that vs. finding another dash. Since the cap was there when I bought the car I have no idea how bad the original is. I'm kinda scared to pull the cap...

I was down to the Race or Prototipo. After looking at a ton of pictures I eventually decided on the Proto. The shift **** is the one piece ****/boot combo that Automotion sells so there's no gluing etc. Instead of re-using my shifter button I ordered one w/the crest. Not sure how crazy I am about the yellow Momo button, might need to find a crest or one of the black ones.

Looks great! I may have a more subtle Momo button if you want me to dig around.

Sorry for the delay. I'm still looking. I haven't seen it since I moved. I think it may be in one of the few boxes that haven't been opened.
