You'd just be paying more for the name if you got the Momo. Isotta all the way.

i think i sit too far back for the airbag to even work. i mean in the case the seat belt should fail(knock on wood.. knock knock). then an airbag would be great.

do you have a part # for that boss? and do you know if it has that notch on the back to retain the female connector (which is apart of the turn signal return mechanism)?

I think the Isotta looks best, and second the Nardi. Why? because those 2 look close to factory.
