Default HOW TO: Install OMP steering wheel and NRG Quick release in the s2000 (video inside)

I installed my OMP Superquadro flat-bottom steering wheel, NRG short Hub, and NRG Quick release 3.0 in the s2000. I haven't had the car on track yet with the new setup, but the ergonomics of the wheel for me seem to be a huge improvement. I no longer have the issue of my knees hitting the bottom of the wheel when heel-toe downshifting. This became a problem recently when I installed my new Sparco Circuit 2 Halo seat and I could not get the seat as low as my previous Recaro pole Position had been.

Anyway here is my latest video which takes you through the installation process step by step. I hope this is helpful! I tried to get fancy with the video editing at the beginning. My wife thought it was super cheesy....

Great video! I used this to install my Vertex wheel and quick release setup. Very clear instructions. Airbag clip is a little different on AP1 I came to find out lol luckily my friend helped me figure out how to install the resistor. Turns out it only needs one on AP1!

I like that setup! How does the physical position of the wheel compare? I am having trouble figuring out what I need to keep it in the stock position

Used this video 3-4 weeks ago to install the same exact parts, except for the steering wheel (went with a sparco 330mm). It was excellently done, and preferred over another video I referenced.

Question: why did you choose the Circuit/Circuit II over the similarly priced and sized Pro Adv/Pro Adv TS?
