Oh wow, Thanks heaps! Is there a write up somewhere? I can't seem to find instructions on how to change the steering wheel.
Also, I have an EK9 cluster and it's definitely plug and play, I did it myself - looks mad!

doesnt it look weird with the ctr badging on it?
Pretty easy disconnect battery
remove airbag
remove steering wheel make sure wheels are straight before you start
fit ek9 wheel them mount the ek9 airbag plug in airbag cord and connect horn wire
you will need a special piece to remove the screws to take out the airbag. Can try a flat head driver first tho if u don't have the special piece to fit the screws
can be done with the flat head driver just make sure you don't strip it
One suggestion that really comes to mind is upgrading the front seats
(bollocks to the rear passengers!).
The stock EM1 seats are absolutely pathetic. I'm sure you will all agree with me. They have so little lateral support, especially for an EM1. They are the worst feature of the stock car IMHO.
When I'm able to, I might invest in some reasonably priced sport seats. I recommend that evey EM1 owner does so as well.
lol, they're better than oem ej8 seats by a long shot, best mod would be ek4 front seats for the money, such a good stock seat :)
Yeah, I'm picking up a set of I think it's the DC2R bucket seats this week. Should be good.
Okay, Just a quick update, I have decided not to go with the turbo. However I've bought SR3 Recaro's and I now have an EK9 CTR Steering Wheel.
Just wondering, I want new rims, was looking at the Rota Slipstreams, but have no idea what colour I should buy? I like bright rims ie. silver or polished grey but I'm finding it hard to decide because I can't find many pictures.
Opinions?
white rims, 15/16" grippy street radials, nice wheel lock nuts, clean up calipers to make wheels stand out even more :)
clean bro. :D
Should start a project build thread for this, with alot of pictures :)
i was gonna go with rota slipstreams, but the cos they are fake copy of spoon. i kinda backed off. but i reckon the car looks sick with stockies n slammed IMO, but cos i live in adelaide the cops always have an eye for me, so im going for the dead stock like a rock look.. but look around and be paitence.. there will be something grab ur attention...
