Steering Wheel

Post by AndySweeney »

Just Wanting To Know If I Could Swap The Steering Wheel I Have The Now With Another One?

The One I Want Is The One With The Airbag

Ant The One I Have Is The Kinda Ugly 2 Arced One ??

I Dont Have Power Steering So Was Just Wondering If This Was Possible??

no, because you would need all the airbag control system
wouldnt be possible to retrofit this sorry

same as powersteering, would be more hassle that its worth.

As long as the airbag is removed it should be ok.

it dont matter if its an airbag steering wheel, the airbag isnt going to be connected to anything so wont go off in a crash, airbag corsa's have an airbag ecu, a merit doesnt, so theres no electrical pulse to make it go off, all the splines are the same on corsa steering colums so will fit, i got a steering wheel off a calibra turbo on mine and no trouble fitting that, why do you want an airbag steering wheel anyway when its not even going to do owt? pointless exerscise! :lol:
