As the title indicates,
I'm looking to do a quick release steering wheel and I was looking at Breeze or **********s versions.

Anybody have experience with the ********** one?

Same for the Breeze version?

Pics appreciated also. Thanks.

Not ********** or Breeze, but have you seen this thread? https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?34975-Quick-Release-Russ-Thompson-turn-signal. Bunch of us have gone this way. No cutting or welding and works great.

I went with the Breeze version and am very happy with it. Here's my post if you're interested

Neither Breeze Nor Finish Line!

I've got issues with my left hand so the wood wheel is too thin while the leather wheel was too thick.
I gave both away to fellow forum members since they wouldn't work for me.

So after doing more research. I decided to go the NRG route. The SRK-400 version. The Srk-400S to be exact, which is the aluminum color version. I feel the silver version will blend in with the hub and wheel better.
My main reason was because it is only 1-1/4
inch thick, and the way it locks down has absolutely no play what so ever. Sometimes spline versions have a little wiggle.

My final decision was that I can mount it to the current standard ffr hub, OR I can upgrade to the russ Thompson turn signal hub too. I really like that.
It does take drilling a new hole pattern into the wheel and hub but those holes get covered by the steering wheel cap so it's fine.
The helpful suggestions from other members helped me decide this route. Thanks guys.

PS this hub can be purchased from autoplicity.com for only $85. I also called "NRG innovations" directly, to confirm that they are an authorized dealer to make sure they weren't selling counterfeits, or knock offs.
