WooHoo!!! Prototipo is in...
and installed. That was a quick and easy job, even for a gimp like me.
I will get to try it out when I go to pick up my daughter, but it already feels pretty good. The speedo is cut off a little, but not bad. Thank to all who replied to my previous thread and help me decide to buy one.

Turn the speedo to the left.....you'll be able to see the more important speeds.

Congratulations. I was surprised how easy it is to swap out steering wheels. Now you can start a momo steering wheel collection and swap them out at will. I 2nd rotating the speedo to make it easier to read.

I am going to rotate the speedo and see how I like it.
I have to say, I have been driving the car around and I really like this wheel. The size and feel are just right to me for some reason.

+1 on rotating the speedo anticlockwise. That's what I've done to the one in my car.

The gauge repair shops can repaint the face to start the speedo farther counterclockwise than stock so the odometer is still horizontal but the visible portion of the speedo is something like 20 to 110. Or just learn the rpms at desired speeds in 4th and 5th gear. Great mod and looks very nice
