Nope just hub and quick release. I personally wouldn't do a quick release unless it's a track car. I know momo hubs are made to crumble on impact making it a safer hub than any of the others. I used nrg short hub and called it a day with a sparco deep dish steering wheel. Make sure you get a decent wheel don't go ebay...

FYI a crush hub is pointless if you dont have a helmet on.
Your head will crush before the 'crush' hub does.
4 or 5 point harness yourself up to prevent that from happening.

You are correct tiga I forgot about that. Momo, sparco and Nardi are the 3 most popular ones. I personally think almost every momo wheel is ugly. I use sparco deep dish. You can go the cheaper route and get nrg or royal grip steering wheel they run 80-130$. Decent for the price but they do have more flex than sparco, Nardi, momo. But are also 1/3rd the price. I like the nrg wood grain in black deep dish. It's like 120$

I wouldn't do a quick release unless you're building a track car. Could always do a three post or 7th gen

Hub+quick release+steering wheel+quick release lock.

Quick release is mainly used for swapping steering wheels in the middle of racing but it is also used for anti theft. That's where you buy a quick release lock.
