Didn't you already start a thread where a whole buch of people showed off their MOMOs?
I think kyriian's matches the MINI interior very nicely.

The poblem that I had with the MOMO was getting it down below the little plastic neck stopper. Pictured below is not my ****, but shows the problem. It was keeping the MOMO about 3/8" to 1/2" higher than the stock ****.



With a file, a hack saw and a little elbow grease, I was able to get rid of the problem.

thanks for the compliment:


the momo will pop out a bit if you are using the stock shifter, i have the pilo short shift kit on so it isn't a problem

Great quality, great appearance, great fit on the PROMINI short shifter. However, this particular **** was not very comfortable and higher then I like so I now have a ball type. I'm in the market for another though.

I went with the MOMO Evo Race. It looks much like Kyriian's, except that it has an aluminum strip at 9:00 that runs down the side (see below):

Since taking the picture I cut approx. 1/2" off the shaft and filed off the plastic neck, and used emory paper to take down the diameter of the shaft below that point to around 18 mm. The current height is somewhere around stock, and works well with my Helix SS.
