I'm considering putting this wheel in an S4 Elan -- does anyone know what it would take to get it to fit? Has anyone tried this one?

I like the Momo Prototipo. I've had mine for 20 years... and now they make them again, although the Lotus horn button is fairly hard to come by. Maybe they make those again as well.
It may be sacrilege, but aesthetically I think it looks better than the Chapman original... although I'd by one of those in a heartbeat if the price were right.

Fitted red Moto-Lita to the Elan a few months ago - prefer the thicker rim than the older style wheels. Probably a bit 'modern' for a forty two year old car but well made. Also have a red quick release Momo on the Elise with the same rim thickness.

the one that came with my car was too flexible so I got an undrilled steering wheel from Pegasus and drilled it to fit--ed

Momo may also have an adapter, but I couldn't find one when I went looking. I have a Momo Indy and used the Grant Spitfire adapter -- Momo bolts right up to Grant.
The Indy hole fit the period Lotus emblem just fine, but I bought a replacement emblem and it is keyed to center. You need to cut away some of the plastic key to make this one fit.
