replace 5th gen steering wheel?

Post by macky_6 » Tue Mar 26, 2013 10:36 pm

I want to replace the steering wheel on my 5G, it is in poor condition, and is the size of the moon :lol:

What are my options without boss kits?

And not fussed about losing the airbag. If i crash, i want to die :D

Cheers all 8-)

S2k or ep3 are nice upgrades.
You even get to keep the airbag, and its quite straightforward to add your cruise controls if you want to.

I put one on last year, and wished I had done it ages ago.

I recently fitted an ep3 momo wheel to mine. Much better than stock in feel and looks. Hard to find a good quality one with airbag for a decent price though.

No. The UKDM Airbag ones are identical to the Type S wheel but it wont fit.

S2000/EP3/DC5 are all the same wheel by design with different stiching and a crappy momo badge on the later ep3s. All are a direct fit.

Thanks ratty 8-)

Looking at getting an EP3 one. If i get one without the airbag is it possible to disable the SRS light?

I know about filing the notch for the ATTS :geek:
