from what I've heard, the traction lights only come on if the clock spring isn't centered.

I don't know if NRG have released a new design, but I had to return mine because it doesn't work with the twins.
Look at the third pic:

It needs that hole for the cables to go thru and space for the plug which the nrg I got didn't have it.

Nope. Nrg short hub doesn't retain the factory clock spring. That's why the lights stay on. Gotta go with a different company's hub that does retain the factory clock spring if you want the lights to go away.

If you haven't installed it yet return it and buy the works bell hub. I have the nrg and that happen to me. There's nothing wrong with my car other than I don't have the sport mode button working nor my traction control one. If you want those just buy the works bell hub. It's compatible with your clock spring. I already installed my nrg a while back and had boughten the works bell but it didn't fix anything because since I took my clock spring to make the nrg hub to fit and apparently getting the clockspring "fixed" again cost a lot. Which I would rather spend my money on other things right now. Best bet is to get the works. Use that one instead

A shop won't do it since it's illegal to mess with the airbags in your car. Therefore steering wheel is no acception unless it's strictly a track car
