Steering wheel swap question

is it possible?

I posted a question about steering wheel emblems. The rest of the interior looks nice, but I hate the current stock steering wheel. I do not want to get an aftermarket wheel because they don't have airbags.

So I noticed the 7th and 8th gen civic steering wheels and was wondering has anyone tried putting them on an older civic, like my 2000 ex?

all these wheels are nice, but the main question is, can I get any of those to work with my car? (mount, ps, cruise control, horn, airbag. And if they have radio controls could I connect them to radio?)

I think it would be a very nice thing to be able to do. If I can I will, if I can't, oh well.

hybrid wheel


06-08 wheel


05 civic

Re: Steering wheel swap question

the one you have pictured for an 05 is actually in an Si. i wouldn't know about the airbags, but i know the Si wheel is a bolt-in replacement for the 01-05 coupes and sedans. if you can get wiriing diagrams for the airbags and info on how many/type stages they have, then i'm sure it could be done.

and i like the hybrid wheel if you intend on keeping all the radio and cruise controls functional. post up if you get more info on the possibility

I have an S2000 wheel that might be fore sale if a local buyer doesn't want it. Dual stage airbag too!

Re: Steering wheel swap question

lol I've tried that along with 3 other sites. All I could find was a swap on a 5th gen prelude. I don't know if I'm going to have to do anything else besides remove old wheel, put new one on.

and it seems impossible to find a s2k wheel.
