Default Quick Release Steering Wheel Adapter - What brand/Where to buy?

Hey guys,

What does everyone use/like for quick release steering wheel adapters (c5 corvette)? I found a lot of older threads recommending an ATI unit, however I can't seem to find it for sale anywhere.

Thanks in advance.

I just installed an OMP wheel with a NRG quick release. Took it for a quick road test yesterday and all seems well. Didn't turn the wheel in anger but so far I love the size and feel of the wheel, and the quick release does make life easy getting in and out.

Grant makes a relatively cheap wheel adapter, spacer, and momo/sparco adapter all available through Summit Racing. That with a Sparco 350 wheel makes for a nice setup.

I use NRG's when a horn is needed and Lifeline when no horn is needed.

Same setup here. Horn is still functional.
Install is a breeze after you have removed the stock wheel.
The Gen 2.8 seems to be slightly easier with gloves, haven't tested the 3.0 but the prices have come down:

The ATIs quick release is the grant standard gm bolt on setup. The unique piece from ATI is the steering wheel to quick release adapter. It is extended to place the steering wheel near the stock location. I have yet to find another adapter extended like that. It is machined out in the center so short bolts can be used. All other spacers I have seen require long bolts and stacking with a 6 bolt to 3 bolt adapter.
