   had a momo one. pretty useless for road use really. found it a pain to not be able to reach the stalk as easy so removed it.
   the omp horn badge will still be able to used as snap off part basically extends the colum doesnt change anything other than being able to be removed

   if u do then get creative, buy the metel ring that holds the horn in and cut the back off the horn then it will work

   Beware of cheap knock-offs on ebay. Your steering wheel is one of the only points of contact with the car, you don't want to skimp on it.

    I had something similar to this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Slimline-Q...#ht_660wt_1187
    
    Had loads of play. Everything was tight, and there was no way the wheel was coming off, but there was play.
    
    So, now, I have one of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/D1-SPEC-ST...ht_1606wt_1002
    
    Yeah, the stalks are further away, but i'm used to it now TBH, and going from the slimline one to the bigger one has spaced the wheel just right for me.
