Nardi wood in an NB, anyone?

apple

I have a 99 base (black inside) and considering a Nardi wood-steering-wheel. The only small wood Nardi I can find is a polished spoke version, which is doable for me, but I prefer the quot;dark wombquot; effect in my car.  I plan to add the AWD gauge needles, other than that there's no polish or chrome inside.  The Boss Frog seatbelt holders are powder coated hypersilver, but thats it for the 'shiny' inside.
Likely will go with a wood Nardi knob to complement the wheel too.
Anyone done this yet with an NB, pics?

Here's mine, but the factory did this one for me...
You can source out an '01SE wheel for the black spokes you want. The knob and E-brake handle are available through Mazda still.

ahhh...
I should've been more precise.  It's the aftermarket Nardi wood wheel I'm considering, so there'll be no airbag.  I suppose the wood ebrake will have to join a wood knob and wheel, if it works out.  Thanks for the pics.

I have a01' LS that I put a 00' SE nardi wood wheel in and I really like it.I also have the wood shifter knob, ebrake handle, and instrument cluster. No pics yet.   zzman

No wood shifter or brake handle. This is from my first NA:

Well I see I'm not the only one thats gone thru this lol.   Thanks Miata GT, looked great!
I currently have a black 330mm Nardi knock-off, all black.   It looks like the real-deal, with all the right stamped markings, etc.  It's mounted with a Works hub and NRG quick release.  The plan is to get a second NRG QR and mount the Wood nardi on it.  Then I can swap steering wheels in a matter of a few seconds, depending on my quot;moodquot;.   Same with a shift knob, wood or titanium, etc.
Imelda Marcos would be sooo proud! lol  (ya, I just dated myself).
