Aftermarket steering wheel with airbag

As mentioned in my project log, I had a annual inspection failure on the horn. Turned out it had the familiar issue of the horn switch in the 4-spoke steering wheel. It looks like I can get a new horn plate (the thing with the 4 rubber 'springs' which is the culprit) for over E 100 (or $100 for that matter). That seems a bit steep to fix a steering wheel which isn't very nice looking to start with.

So I see two other options;
- Upgrade to the Porsche 3 spoke wheel. They are very expensive on Ebay, but I do have some other resources I could look at. Main question: Does this suffer from the same horn issue?

- Put in an aftermarket steering wheel. A 3 spoke kind of wheel or one with a bit flattened bottom would work best for me, but I do want to retain the airbag. So are there any aftermarket steering wheels with good quality airbags for sale?
