Default Aftermarket steering wheels

Whats a good aftermarket steering wheel thatll direct fit on c5 corvette? What are most people using? Is there one with a quick disconnect i see you would still need the blinker switch steering wheel shroud. Curious to see pics of peoples aftermarket steering wheels with no air bag and column. I see that doing this causes the air bag light to come on so with an aftermarket steering wheel no air bag to turn off the dash air bag light how do you go about doing this simply plug the resistors in from the air bag plug to steering column air bag? On my 99 service manual it says simply to unplug both yellow connectors next to the steering column to disable the air bags and simply plug them back in to turn srs back on. Mine is a 99 so it doesnt have the key in glove box to turn off the passenger air bag. My factory steering wheel is in good shape i like the design but does anyone think the aftermarket steering wheels are better. Which are designed for the c5 corvette and what adapter to make it fit is needed?
I see this module plugs directly into the air bag plug under the steering column to fool the air bag srs system that an airbag is connected? Is this module below and airbag diagnostic instrument or resistor to plug into the air bag plug to turn off the air bag dash light when putting an aftermarket steering wheel? It says its an air bag emulator simulator bypass. This plugged in will turn off the dash air bag light for an aftermarket steering wheel correct? 4PCS Car Airbag Simulator Emulator SRS Resistor Bypass Fault Finding Diagnostic | eBay
