Red-Line Sport Steering Wheel on Ebay
I'm considering buying the steering wheel in the auction below (looks like the MP wheel at half the cost, what gives?). I emailed the seller about shifter buttons and he said he would cut out the holes if I sent him my buttons. Anyone ever seen one of these wheels in person or had any experience with this seller/shop? TIA.

Just heard back from the seller. He said the wheel would be modified to include the holes for the shift buttons by the manufacturer
. Not really sure where the manufacturer is, etc.
The pics are nice, and he has solid feedback from others who have bought it.
Wonder if I could fab the wheel myself to fit the buttons. Or maybe I should give HMS a call to inquire about it.
One things for sure, the price is right.

Anyone have any thoughts as to the quality of this wheel?
I know there are some members here with extensive knowledge concerning the different steering wheels out there, any thoughts as to whether this is a good buy and whether a shop would be able to easily fab the wheel to include shift buttons? Or should I just bite the bullet and buy an MP wheel.
TIA.
