i want to do it but i heard its a ball buster so if any1 has done it let us know
i changed the VTiR wheel with the Civic Type R momo wheel.
It feels better than having a bat!
well i got some info from da mechanics..it's not hard to do
also cost 35 bux to put in and rmove original
but the thign is...if u have an accident, insurance wont cover u.
it's not the copz..copz is easy..
so pretty big issue
get the MOMO one with an airbag... it hink about $800
i thnk 800 is a bit expensive for a steering wheel.
wat wont cover u for da whole car or just da wheel. i am thinking about changing the steering wheel on my ek but want to find out more info bout itQuote:

first you gotta remove the 2 screws on the sides behind the plastic covers that let you remove the air bag, make sure u take out the fuse for the air bag and disconnect it before u do anything, to get the screws out you need a tamper set, can get it from any hardware store, then undo the bolt in the middle of the wheel then you can pull it off. then u have to remove the airbag controller:(, its jst 4 screws around the black box behind the steering wheel.
then you jst bolt on the boss kit and the new seering wheel. u have fun with that, glad I dont have to do it again, it's a pain tring to get it straight so good luck.:thumbsup:
i paid about $650 for mine ;)Quote:
