Dood, I personally would not buy it

"MOMO STYLE WOODEN SPORTS STEERING WHEEL"

There are cheap Momo Style wheels on the market, they don't have steel re-*inforsement inbetween the wood, which makes them weak, and can snap in accidents.

Also Bali Wheels are made of a wood, that if not cured/dried properly, they can crack, as they dry out properly.

I just use old saas steering wheels in my cars, the 3 spoke ones with the small holes in each spoke.
Boss kits range from $65 to $90 depending on what brand and where you got it from.

these are $75 new at supercheap. I've got one similar (4 spoke, no holes)

Would like to get one of the old-school black deep-dish ones, they're real small, but the grip is fat, and a nice "datsun" horn button to top it off.
