Dion, any chance that second hand hub is for sale? bnmotorsports@msn.com Sorry Brad, it's not for sale, I like the setup, as I do put it in when I feel the need to have a much better feeling steering wheel in my car. Dion

Actually, there is hardly any process to go through to remove an airbag. You just have to sign a release form at the approved body shop that removes it. I just went with my friend to have it done less than a month ago. And, as long as he told his insurance agency that he did remove it, there is no chance of gettin in trouble with them. It did affect his discount from having an airbag though.

Dion, Can't seem to get to the Nordskog (Intellitronix) site. Any ideas. Want to do the gauge thing. Looks good. Originally posted by dion: Okay,
Yes, I know, which is why I still have my airbag in the car. I can switch it out the MOMO when I want, and yes, I put it back in, not because it's missing the airbag, but because I missed having cruise control. But, just to let you know, I'm on the shorter side, so I sit closer to the steering wheel, my bag isn't a 2nd gen "depowered bag" so my airbag may cause me more harm than good.
The airbag light flashes with the Momo.
Hub is made by South County Autosports, and it does say on the hub "FOR SHOW PURPOSES ONLY." See it at www.scracing.net
Gauge pod is from a group buy several months back, Lotek engineering produces it. It houses three gauges. www.gaugepods.com
Gauges are by Nordskog (used to be Intellitronix), the gauges are electric, back-lighted blue (but changed with a colored bulb), white face. www.intellitronix.com
When I get the chance, I'll post more pics of the car and mods, and if David Z lets me, I have a good picture of his car from Fabulous Fords Forever.

3. Thats Illegal!!
4. Is your airbag light flashing?
5. Dude!! No cruise control??
LOL. Looks pretty cool. Didn't realize anyone made an adapter to fit our hub. How much that set you back? D.I.Y. or what? Is that a 300ZX gauge pod on the A-pillar?

I kind of don't like the look without the doorstrips, it looks too odd to me with such a big, flat panel without something to break it up, and with the horizontal line created where the bumpers and fenders meet, it really makes the flatness of the doors stand out. It's just one of my quirks.
