You can line up the top and bottom notches using a screwdriver or similar. They rotate freely. Just line them up before offering up the wheel. Your new wheel will sit slightly off as the lude splines are offset to s2k etc.

hey guys looking abit of advice, fitted an ep3 steering but as soon as I turned the wheel to test if the 4ws was working there was a click and the srs light came on, do you reckon its something to do with the airbag or does it just need reset? also what way did yous wire the horn in I couldn't get my head round it :p any help would be great :)

Did you fit the airbag?
Did you file out a notch for 4WS?
Has it all been wired in, like airbag to harness?

On my horn i cut the wires so it went into 2 and wired one to the left and one to the right. The bottom horn connector on the airbag kept going off when i braked so i removed the metal pin to it couldnt complete the circuit on the bottom horn.

Airbag is fitted and the wee notch is filed out, and the airbag is connected to the harness,

what why do you mean you connected it to the left and right is that the wee springs with the plastic washer things in the middle of them so when you press down it completes the circuit? it completely baffled me when i was trying to connect it back up :P

The are 2 wire to the Preludes horn on a harness. Remove that harness and it plugs in. I cant remember exactly and im not removing mine to see but its ALL plug and play.
