Steering wheel

[3800SoloWing]

Anyone yanked one of these before? I have a replacement for my current one, because it's looking very tattered. No tears, but it looks like its going to soon. I bought an aftermarket leather one, but the kink is that it has no airbag. Any way to bypass the airbag sensors without bothering the computer that much?

Well, I am 99% sure you will probably need a steering wheel puller. I haven't personally pulled one from a 4th gen, but maybe you won't need it. Anyways, which steering wheel do you have? If you have the base one, you could get the one with cd player controls on it instead of the one without the airbag. Just a suggestion. Anyways, check into the puller.

I used a Powerbuilt puller on mine worked well once you get use to it. As to get rid of the light , I thought about just disconnecting the light bulb if I went with a aftermarket wheel like Grant , but you would have to take out the passenger side too, just in case, so it doesn't explode on ya.

Re: Steering wheel

pull out the cluster, and then on the rear, remove the bulb....... simple as that :-)

Re: Steering wheel

dont forget this! when changing the steering wheel unhook the battery! i know you see this on everything you install in a car, but if the airbag happen to go off at the wrong time while youre working on it, it could snap your neck... take the extra 2 min and unhook it....

You'll need to swap in a new clockspring (SIR coil) and possibly rewire the harness underneath the dash, along with swapping to a wheel with radio controls. Start a new thread on this and I can give more detailed explanation. Best to keep threads on track.
