Default C6 steering wheel adapter

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. If you are looking for a way to bolt a racing steering wheel into your C6, Pfadt Race Engineering has it.

This allows the attachment of a Momo/Sparco or equivalent (6 x 70mm pattern) wheel to your C6. You can also use it to attach any 'standard' quick release. It's made from 6061 T6 aluminum and weighs only 82 grams.

Taking pre-orders on them now. Production pieces to be available in early April. Introductory price is $149

Don't worry, we're not going to make them orange







And some photos of the prototypes. These are getting anodized right now and then I'll get some photos of them on the car.





Feel free to call for details!

Here are some more photos of the adapters. The fit in the car is great.

These are designed so that you can leave the clock spring in place and hook up the horn or whatever switches (radio, lap timer, dash etc...) and have them rotate with your new wheel. Or you can take the clock spring off and eliminate those wires. Either way works.











Please call if you have any questions.

Yep, I'm keeping that wheel no matter what.

There are plenty of 6 x 70mm pattern quick releases on the market. I have one sitting on my desk right now. Actually, with a flat wheel like the Sparco that I have on now, the adapter would space the wheel out perfectly.

We might integrate in a quick release down the road, Josh is pretty crafty.

Anything in the works for the C5? If not can you suggest one that fits best? I like the look of the part.

The MOMO part# is K2401. It is large and ugly but it works with just a little trimming of the plastic on your steering column cover. It is the one I have used on C5s in the past.
