Roush '99 S351's came with custom steering wheels?

Right.

No problema.

Whatever you do, don't bring them over here. We would never get rid of them.

Speaking of steering wheels, one of the things I dislike about my '98 Saleen Cobra, in addition to the crappy OEM seats, is the OEM steering wheel. It's diameter & thickness I find to be very uncomfortable & ungainly, particularly in what is supposed to be a high-performance sport car. The steering wheel in my dearly departed '99 SVT Contour & even my wife's '00 Focus are much more comfortable with smaller diameters & thicker rims.

Of course the ideal wheel would be the MOMO Monte Carlo from my dearly, dearly departed '89 Saleen, but fitting an aftermarket wheel to an airbag equipped vehicle is too labor intensive to consider.

Is there an existing OEM or FRPP steering wheel available that I could swap for my current wheel?

Thanks for the link. I seem to remember that Ford Motorsport/SVO, ne FRPP, offered OEM style wheels. Unfortunately if the FR500 wheel is only available in black leather, it won't match my Saddle interior.

My 1998 s351 speedster does have a carbon fiber wheel similar to the one in the photo, but black in color...both the leather and the carbon fiber. I would take a pic but I just put the car in storage this weekend and is not available for me to take a pic. The window sticker says nothing about any carbon fiber parts. The shifter nob is carbon fiber as well.

I have spoken to the previous owners. I asked each of the about modifications and each claimed no changes?
