What, airbag version does Sparco/Momo make?
I understand what you are saying BUT, I guess you don't own a 'back in the day' muscle car, or any pre 'bag' era vehicle.

If you do modify, get the air bag version. Don't loose that safety issue just for a better steering wheel. Air bags saves lives, take my word, seen way to many accidents in the last 20 years in Law Enforcement to not have that system. Plus with a vette, you may push her once in a while, I think it is one safety item that should stay with the vette. Good luck in your quest.. (If I could only show you what a none-airbag wheel does to a body on a head on, you would never remove that air bag, ever...)

There are no airbag options if you want a Sparco/Momo wheel. I nearly went with a Caravaggio wheel, but it's still 'huge' compared to the Sparco. The Caravaggio D type wheel for the C6Z06 looks awesome, but it's never gonna work with a C5. Love the Sparco wheel. Makes the car feel like a proper sports car, and not a school bus.

I knowd dat! 
ONLY the 'Raid' has a bag.
I have the Caravaggio too. Just saying that there are lots of collector cars out there without bags that are driven 'briskly', and no one freaks out. On the other hand. I would not take the bag out of a newer car!
