Well that was quick. I just ordered a regular Grant quick release like Bill did. I'm going to remove the Grant security system. After thinking about it some more I decided the fact that four 8-32 screws secure the locking mechanism to the base wasn't safe enough. And with the Kirkey I'm going to want to release the steering wheel all the time and this is a much sturdier design for that. The only downside is I'll lose the horn.
