so honda has a few of these that were sent to the US warhouses? looks like the JDM version with the MOMO logo, i assume it has red stitching? any other grip changes vs the stock si one?
Maybe this is sticky worthy but figured I would share the US honda dealer part # for the JDM MOMO steering wheel (hoop only, no airbag, use factory airbag)
78501-s6m-r71zb GRIP COMP *TREAD*
should pull up as that

Hope this helps everyone,

I can get 3 of these. One that would need to be rewrapped because of a tear, and the other two have some scuffs. The threading is faded to an almost whiteish pink color. I personally like our wheels better bc of quality. Pm me if anyone is interested. They come with the airbag as well. Authentic dc5 jdm steering wheels
can anybody confirm if this has the red sticking?
Any additional parts for installing this wheel?
I could have swore that this wheel is the same as the EP3R wheel.
Excuse my ignorance, but aside from the red H and the momo stamp, isn't the whole wheel the same? (USDM Si vs. EP3 CTR)
There is no significant difference, if anything the usdm is better quality and not as hard, the type r is hard and has the momo stamp and red h, I know the three at my buddys shop were shipped from japan and labeled dc5r, the ctr probably uses the same wheel
Yeah, I think it's the exact same thing aside from those two differences, unless anyone says otherwise.
I would think the USDM spec wheel uses a softer leather verses the jdm wheel that uses a harder leather that's similar in their after market wheel line up.
this is just the wheel, no airbag (use your usdm airbag)
this has red stitching, harder leather. personally I prefer it over oem because I have found the OEM wheel fades, wears quicker. Hence why I got this one. Mainly its a matter of preference. Just thought I would share my findings with you guys.
I believe this is the same as the CTR wheel but since it is sold through honda/ now acura from what I was told, it is labeled as a dc5r wheel
that sucks about it being "harder", id rather just get the real JDM airbag and a new si wheel.
