That's a pricey wheel. I see a theme developing.

What part of Lewisville are you in? I'm over in Indian Oak Estates at Corporate and Valley. I assume you didn't get hit my the tornado.

I'm about as far east as you can go just off 121 and Standridge (just down the street from Pier 121. We got a lot of rain but not much else.

Also does the horn still work?
It's the MOMO Quark. I purchased it from Momousa.com for $157.50.

Yes, the horn still works. Just as loud as ever!

Looks nice! Does the adapter add extra length to the steering column? That is, is the wheel closer to you now? I was looking at a wheel kinda like that but my wheel now is close enough as it is.

No, when you compare it to all the stuff you take off it's about the same. You do lose the telescope feature though (i never used it anyways).
