**monstaR** · 04-10-2004 02:39 PM

Hi Guys, was wondering what do I have to get or do to install a after market momo steering wheel into my DC2R(oem wheel has airbag). Other than the boss is there anything else?

No, but your airbag light will be constantly on. Can I ask why you would want to do this?

Search.......this was discussed before mate

I don't beleive it is legal to do so.

illegal to remove a car steering wheel with airbag... but anyway... that's OT

Also... Type-R steering wheel is nice... MOMO too... your choice I guess...

yup. its illegal, and for obvious reasons. but if that doesnt worry u, or the fact that in a crash u wont have an airbag, and insurance company will not pay any costs as car is not road legal, then a boss kit is all u should need

nothing else needed..
as for the light on the dash i believe u can take off the bulb/plug ?

**Rufes1** · 04-10-2004 11:37 PM

There would have to be a way to bridge it out to make it think there still is an airbag..

n.b I agree with others, silly to do, but yeh your choice in the end

i dont know y u wanna change the steering wheel...the airbag light will come on and wont turn off coz the car does a diagnostic check every time u start up...and only honda can turn that shit off even if u put the airbag back in...a lot of hassel..and secondly yeah its very illegal
