eBay Hub Adapter, anyone try it? Cheap alternative

I have an extra momo hub for an e30. I will trade you that for your '02.

I bought this hub and it barely wants to slide onto the steering spline.
Is this because I have an airbag car ?

Excuse me for bumping an old thread.

Splines are the same airbag and non airbag, the difference is a depth one. Sounds like poorly broached spines in the hub.

Momo hubs are designed to bend/crush in an accident so the steering wheel will have some give and can possibly be reused with a new hub. Obviously this makes it more expensive. A solid hub won't have much give, so in an accident the steering wheel (and you) will take the brunt of the force. This is something to consider.

There is not much to give in the OE steering wheel anyways. I think the crush zone is at the steering column. I have both the momo and the ebay hub. The momo definitely fit better and much lighter. The ebay hub fitment is kinda sucks. It is so tight I can't even take it out now.

I bought one, and the textured paint on the outside was oversprayed all over the splines inside and clogging a bunch of them so I didn't even attempt to put it on. I got my money back and ordered a momo.

Just chiming in because I'm judging my past self for starting this thread a few years ago. It's painful to read, sorry for being such a fuckboi guys.

Skip the eBay crap and go for a MOMO.

I just chucked mine in the trash , I learned my lesson with eBay hubs.

On another note, anyone have a MOMO Hub they'd like to sell me? Lol
