Default anyone using grant anti theft?

http://www.grantproducts.com/pc-269-...ty-system.aspx

i bought a sig series wheel (773) at kragen since it was on sale. I went to get another caliper (i broke the bleeder nipple) and used my core to buy it. unfortunatly my dumbass didnt look to see if it would fit since i was in a hurry to finish up before work.

grant website says i can use the wheel if i get the anti theft kit... which is good for me since i was looking for a anti theft upgrade...

i emailed them to make sure it fits but probobly wont get a responce untill 2morrow.

so does anyone have it? if i get the green light from grant ill purchase it and post pics

thanx

I have used them on 3 different applications and they work well. They do move the steering wheel closer to you because of the added thickness on top of the steering wheel adapter. Something to consider in a Corvette.

Make sure you can use this on your car especially if your not going to be using a Grant steering wheel hub kit that is Corvette specific and compatible with the anti theft locking mechanism.

The only down side to happen is my son had one in his 69 Camaro and in a pouring rain he broke off the release lever when he went to reinstall the steering wheel. I had to get real creative with a pocket screwdriver to retract the locking plate in the hub to get the steering wheel back on to drive the car home. Grant replaced the complete assembly with no questions. Excellent customer service in my book.
