Weatherstripping & Steering wheel

Couple of questions boys..My Z is in need of a complete weatherstripping kit..Are the regular bodied C4 moldings the same as the ZR1? Or do I need a kit specifically for the Z?

Second question is I want to delete the factory steering wheel with airbag for a smaller aftermarket unit..I'm 6ft and the car has a roll age so I'm trying to gain a few inches anywhere I can..Does anyone make an installation kit I can use to install an aftermarket wheel?Probably going with a 5 bolt GT Grant..

The weatherstripping is C4 specific. There is no Z specific weatherstripping kit. So any C4 Coupe kit will work.

There are many hubs of various thicknesses that will do well for an after-market steering wheel. I'm not familiar with a 5-bolt Grant so I can't comment on that one specifically.

Here is a recent thread on steering wheels http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....highlight=momo I'm kinda tall myself and have been eyeballing a smaller, D style wheel, the Momo Commando is one I'm seriously considering. I've never tried a D style wheel but I imagine I'd get used to it, its not like you spend a lot of time turning the wheel that far, probably just low speed parking situations mostly.
