DJ,
You could do what I did...
I had a sport steering wheel from a 99 that I'd been hanging on to.
I took the stock Sonett wheel off and drilled out the rivets that hold the hub to the spokes of the wheel. Then I took the 99 sport steering wheel and removed the hub from it by taking out the screws that held it to the spokes.
I took the hub from the Sonett wheel and matched it up to the holes for the spokes of the 99 wheel and drilled and tapped new holes in the hub. Then I applied LockTite to all the screws and screwed the two together.
This is the wheel I used but it could be done with any number of candidates if you find one you like.

I've actually done this twice. I have one wheel (a different style from the one shown in the picture) on SONEAT and and that one in the picture is waiting to go into my current restoration project. It's easy.
