    Steering Wheel Options

    Like many of you know, after a while, our steering wheels start falling apart. I've looked into finding a new steering wheel replacement but they're all a little bit over my price range and I don't want an aftermarket wheel since I want my air bag. I found this steering wheel cover and was wondering if anyone has ever bought one? Here's the link.

    I was gonna get this, but ended up buying a used RSX wheel online for 80 bucks shipped instead. Looks good, and you get to keep your airbag too.

    As long as you wear your seatbelt, you don't need the airbag. I've actaully seen people get broken noses and wrists due to the deployed airbag. You can buy the steering wheel seperate and reuse your airbag.

    Yeah you're right. I've looked into just buying the grip and reusing my airbag. I guess I'll just keep on looking until I found the best option. Thanks guys.

    I don't know about their wheel covers, but I've actually got a nice pair of leather driving gloves made by the same company.
    Quality product.

    Are there any aftermarket companies that make a steering wheel that will let you keep the airbag and not throw a SRS light? J's racing makes an awesome steering wheel for the 06+ SIs but not ours :-/ I would be interested in buy something like that

    Not that I know of

    I believe you can use
    s2k, any civic from 96 and up, RSX, and Prelude steering wheels.
    Being in Cali, you will have an easier time finding one than a person outside of the state.

    Oh and far as aftermarket and srs, I believe the Worksbell hub keeps the srs sensor unit there, so the light doesn't come on.
    But the air bag will be gone due the the steering wheel itself.
