New steering wheel installed
I installed a nice leather wrapped steering wheel. It is about an 1" or so smaller in diameter than stock. Easy install, used all the stock mounts and horn button. Took about 10 mins. Actually feels like it tightened up the steering because of the smaller wheel.

I bought pretty much the same wheel on fleabay but mine is red to match my red leather interior. Like others I feel that the smaller wheel makes the car more comfortable to drive not to mention more friendly to get in and out of.
I'm a big fan of 'original' but buying this wheel was one of my better purchases of late (I kept the stock wheel in case I get another infection of NCRS fever
). Stripping that one inch from the stock wheels' diameter certainly seems to make the car more controllable.
