My problem is / was that I found it difficult to heel-toe with the standard wheel.
Leading evidence: '/ was' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is '/ was' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Check momo out' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

I'm also taking up Ian's kind offer to check his momo out.

Suggestion
I would like to change my wheel to a smaller cup but that would mean I don't have a car that I can drive on business anymore.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I've been reading threads about wheel changes to a Momo model 7 with interest of late.
At 6'1" I find the driving position really comfortable with the standard wheel. With the seat most of the way back I don't have leg room issues either (no need for the console delete).
So, my question - with the momo boss kit and model 7 how much does this move the steering wheel closer to the driver? I know the dish is 70mm so wondering if the boss adds more distance (or subtracts) to the net change?
Just thinking a flat prototipo may be a better choice?
Ian
Just changed mine to a MOD 07.
I'm 6ft. My problem is / was that I found it difficult to heel-toe with the standard wheel. The Mod 07, being a little closer to the body and a smaller wheel has got rid of this problem.
Furthermore, the wheel is lighter, so turning and throwing into the corners feels nicer in the hand.
Not sure where you are based, but you'd be welcome to come take a look,
I like some of the cup versions but I cant get away from the fact that I would be removing the airbag. Just seems wrong to remove such a vital safety piece.
Have you seen this?

I think those like Sunday Jumper have harnesses, and therefore less of a safety issue.
Those like myself, I see driving my 911 an "experience" and therefore, the thrill is something I look forward to.
With all things there is a degree of risk, and everything is a compromise.
This, coming from a guy who also rides motorcycles haha.
I also have a 924, that has ZERO safety features. It's that raw element that gives me a thrill too.
Your comments are not incorrect.. but the wheel for me has made a big difference to the experience in driving the car.
If you like the 2" boss extension but cannot contact the guy here's his email

seems like a good product and he is selling them for many marques across numerious forums :thumb:

Maybe if I get another 996 and make it a mini gt3
40mm
I've just been out and measured mine. It's hard to measure precisely but give-or-take the measurements are:
Stock wheel - 140mm
MOMO boss - 100mm
MOMO 07 wheel - 70mm
The MOMO boss also leaves a bit more of a gap between the boss & the steering column so you gain a few mm there and with a bit of rounding in the other numbers you end up at ~40mm overall.
And remember that you also have about 40mm of in-out adjustment in the column anyway. So if yours is all the way out at the moment, you could switch to the 07 wheel and push it all the way in and you'd end up pretty much where you are now. Or, if you're all the way in right now, you could end up with the wheel 80mm closer.
The other thing to consider is that increasing the dish of the wheel puts your hands further from the indicator / wiper stalks. You get used to it but it feels a bit weird at first. If you have small hands then the Prototipo might be a better bet.
Thats brilliant and exactly what I was hoping for. I'm not sure where the column is adjusted to currently so will check. I'm also taking up Ian's kind offer to check his momo out.
Hands are in proportion to my 6' plus frame so should reach OK !!
Cheers
Ian
