I believe the srk400. I wanted a thin one since I have the long standard hub.

I am actually looking into getting rid of my standard hub and the nrg quick release so I can get the short hub and rapfix. I'm 6 3 and it's a little too forward for me. Well not really but I want a short one since my arms are long lol. #tallpeopleproblems

It all depends on the car really I had installed my wb 540 and a nardi. No matter what calibration from a shop , dealer etc or not. Mine isn't ,has nor will not turn on so I'm in full slip always living dangerously. Haha it's fairly annoying to see the amber lights blasting in my face but when I do figure it out I will make a DIY.

I modified my hub and made a bracket inside the hub to fit the cruise control stalk.

I found the two wires for the cruise control on the other side of the clockspring. Then I pulled them back a bit to tie into the cruise control box.

Then, I took the cruise stalk apart, soldered wires to the actual board (it's not really a board, just some tabs molded in plastic connected to the plug/3 resistors). With it all apart, it's really easy to see which closed circuit controls what motion. After figuring out how all of it worked, I soldered wires to it, then put the box together with the wires coming out where the stalk used to be. I used solder/heat shrink on everything.

I kept the oem plug into the cruise stalk, and just soldered/heat shrunk the two wires before the clockspring to the two that go to the cc plug. After that, I ran the wires to two 3-way momentary switches (One switch for "on/off" and "cancel", and the other for "+ Res" and "- Set"). Then I mounted the two switches to the left of the radio on the faux carbon panel.

I used my label maker from work for now, but I will be switching to the aircraft style black/gray label to make it not stand out too much.



Kinda racecar, and I dig it so much.

First word of advise to anyone installing Whilst in the process of removing the steering column in no way let the clockspring leave its point of zero degree otherwise you will have to take it to the dealer and pay to have your car re calibrated and aligned fail. I placed the oem wheel back on again to reset to no avail to to the wise no wtf you are doing that DIY posted is kind of worthless or should be edited

I kept cruise control with my aftermarket wheel. It was quite simple. I saw evasive's pikes peak car had a custom bracket made out of carbon fiber. Kel, who works at the shop there works great with carbon and fiberglass.



I am using works bell hub.
