Default Nrg aftermarket steering wheel installed!

Hello guys,
After long research i finally took a risk and tried to install nrg hub adapter on my 370z without removing the clockspring!! And it worked
Everything is fine untill now except few minor things that i am going to fix in few weeks....
So, no airbag lights, no steering sensors (traction control) going off, turn signals are working also....

The one thing that i havent figured out yet is the horn but i am sure i will make it work...

There are two ways install the nrg hub....One is to cut the small connector on the clockspring and the other is to cut the adapter hub so you can make space for the small connector to get in...

I didnt want to cut the adapter because it is made of aluminium and there are big chances to crack (and you dont want that when you drive 160km ), so i cut the connector on the clockspring and so far everything is working, no problems!
If you have question feel free to ask me

Any diy? I have no idea what you're talking about since my 13 has no steering lock and stuff that older cars had issues with.

Did you make the Airbag bypass or did it come with the kit?

I'm thinking about getting the bell tilt hub. Can you measure the distance between the to of your steering well to the tip of the middle cluster. Do you think there is enough clearance?

So why the fck would all these hub companies sell these hubs that don't fit and they are labeled as 370z compatible? Can you take a close up picture of how the hub sits on the steering wheel column?

Can anyone verify if the Momo Hub fits the 370z?

As far as i know none of them is direct fit, and yes they say it is compatible with 370z which is not true.
I had to cut one piece of the hub to make it work. It is 10 mins job, not that bad
