MOMO Prototipo Steering wheel

I just purchased one of these wheels from our host!!!

I can't wait to get it and check it out!!

Anyway, anyone know where to get a center horn button w/Porsche crest? I don't want to use the MOMO button.

Thanks all!
Bob

Thanks Rick. Would you care to share how you have attached your wheel to your car?
I am intending the wheel to go on a SC and I know, as everything PORSCHE, there are many options. i.e. spacer, quick release, accordian thing-a-gig,...
I think I would be interested in the option to easily change wheel for the mood/use of the car.

Let-r rip with the options!
Thanks, Bob

Ok I'm 6-4 and I have an 82, so I had to move the wheel out. (after fixing the bearing)
I used an 1.5 inch hub adapter (accordian thingie) then I installed an additional 2inch spacer. (omp extention) then the wheel. That extra 3.5 inches, and the smaller wheel makes it nice to get in/out of the car. I can also sit comfortable in the car. I can get "up on the wheel" and not have to ride "gangster" The only problem with my rig is that the stalk switches are far away from the wheel. Good thing I have big hands and long fingers.
Please excuse the dirt in my pic, I'm ashamed of the leaves and stuff in my baby.

subject car will be driven by a 6' driver also on an 82' targa body.
When you say gangster, do you mean that w/o spacer the wheel will be real close to the dash?
Also, do you use any quick release thing?

No quick release thing for me, not on the street, I don't have a need to remove my wheel, don't need to spend the extra $$$$ (I'ma poor wrench).
I refer to "gangster" as leaning over to the center of the car. I have to do that when I get into a car with no headroom.............I hate not being able to sit straight.
I like my legs bent, the wheel close. I do alot of country/mountian driving (I live in central Va.) I need to be able to have complete control all the time, no cruising for me. It's always a funrun here.
One advantage of adding a Momo wheel, you can taylor the wheel position for you................sssssaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwhhhhhheeee eeeeettttttt
