Just contact DSV/Gerry and show him the pic and get a price. With about 90% assurance he will have the best pricing and a quality wheel

I would spend a little more and get Caravaggio. The best, period. Apsis is a close second. DSV is nice for the money but take a good look at their wheel. It looks like a fat girl in a bathing suit. Caravaggio looks like the cover girl of Sports Illustrated.

The D-Ergo wheel was the one I thought looked horrible in the pictures. I saw it in person and have to say that its the best and most functional wheel I've seen.

We can make up a wheel for you exactly to your specifications. If you have a picture of the wheel you want, we have the ability to replicate it exactly as shown. All of our work is done in-house by our skilled technicians using only the finest leather, carbon fiber, and alcantara finishes. We can make it OEM thickness, slightly thicker, or extra thick. We have the ability to custom mold it to your specs at no extra cost.

Furthermore, you can buy absolutely risk free from us. If you are not 100% satisfied with our wheel, you can return it for a full refund of your purchase price with no questions asked. We encourage you to compare our products against those made by any other company, and you will see that we offer the best quality without the HUGE Corvette tax found elsewhere.

For what its worth, DSV's prices and quality of work can't be beat.

The shift **** is from MGW, as is the shifter. I installed both the steering wheel (DSV - Ebony and Dark Titanium) and the MGW shifter myself. The install wasn't hard at all. Since I know what I'm doing now, I could do the steering wheel in about 30 minutes. The shifter would probably take about an hour for me.
