Suitable quick release hub

Hello,

I've recently got my hands on a Tiger Cat which i want to install a quick release hub just to make it a little more secure for when i'm parking outside.
Scouring the forums all i can find is old topics with broken links. Do you guys have any suggestions on whats suitable thats not going to move the steering wheel uncomfortably close or is going to require any welding? What do you have on your cars?

If you are going to rely on a Q/R steering wheel to make the car safer/less stealable then forget it and save your money.. The thieves will simply use a pair of mole grips to clamp on the steering column until they get it away. Steering column, pedal locks and hand brake locks all help to slow a thief down. Q/R wheels don't need to be closer to your chest but must have the boss secured by welding to the column.....
