    We installed Tekniq AutoSport’s snap-off kit on a car that already had an aftermarket steering wheel; refer to a Helms manual for instructions on removing your stock wheel. Disconnect the battery and remove the horn button to gain access to the steering-hub bolt. You can either use a socket wrench or a wheel lug-nut crossbar to loosen this bolt. Once you have removed the bolt, pull the steering wheel off the steering column. Make a note of how your steering wheel is aligned, as you will need to place it in the correct position during reassembly; otherwise, it’ll be crooked.

    Depending on which aftermarket steering wheel you have, you might need to install an adapter plate to the Tekniq AutoSport hub plate (this is the attachment that remains on your steering wheel after you’ve detached it) so your Allen-screw holes line up correctly. Since we had a MOMO steering wheel, this option was a must. Use the supplied Allen screws to complete this step.

    Attach the Tekniq AutoSport steering hub to the steering column and bolt it down with the steering-hub bolt. Hot tip: You may want to test your steering wheel alignment first to make sure you’ve correctly positioned the wheel.

Attach the ground wire for the horn button to this plate as well, then attach the other half of the hub plate that goes with the steering wheel.

There’s nothing we hate more than thieves who love to steal cars like ours. Unfortunately, it happens a lot in our scene, but hey, what can you do? You can either sit around and wait for your car to get stolen, or you can be smart and get one of these snap-off anti-theft systems from Tekniq AutoSport. This will fit a variety of aftermarket steering wheels already available, and it takes less than 30 minutes to install from start to finish.

(Remember, this modification is only legal on cars that are not originally equipped with an airbag or that are for off-road or show purposes only.) So even if they wanted to, thieves still couldn’t take your car—well, they’d have a much harder time now.
