Default JaguarSport / MOMO Steering Wheel for Pre-Airbag Cars

I'm curious if anyone knows what adapter or hub, if any, would be required to fit a JaguarSport MOMO or generic MOMO wheel to a pre-airbag XJ40.

I'm seeing quite a few nice new wheels overseas, in the correct Isis Blue for my car. I've gotten very used to the much smaller diameter and thicker rim of my X305 leather/wood wheel. The stock non-airbag XJ40 wheel is humongous and thin in comparison.

There are quite a few nice looking generic MOMO wheels out there too, some with leather/wood too.

Nick - did you look at Ren's thread on these steering wheels? He mounted one on his car a while back.

Thanks! I did not see that one. From what I can gather, he needed a Nardi adapter for the Momo wheel.

I wonder if the JaguarSport Momo wheel is a direct bolt-on?

He hasn't been on lately, why not PM him?

Skipped right past that part, Lawrence! Thank you.

I'll have to give them a call or email and see what's needed to fit these wheels. I will post back with any information I get.

Thanks!

So I was able to answer a few questions I had.

The JaguarSport wheel uses a standard MOMO 6-bolt mounting pattern, which is the same as Sparco and NRG.

Jaguar XJ6 (XJ40) 87-89: MOMO Part # 2202
Jaguar XJ6 (XJ40) 90-94: MOMO Part # 2207

I'd bet Jaguar has a special JaguarSport part number for both of those adapters, but I haven't yet found any information on them.

Nick: Glad you got your questions answered. It took the better part of two months for the adapter to come from Nardi in Italy. I really enjoy the 13.75" wheel vs the original bus size wheel. Ren

Thanks! You're not kidding about "bus sized!" I really like the look of the JaguarSport wheel, especially in the color matched leather. Hopefully I'll be able to score one for a decent price.
