Ok now this is the wheel I have in my car


I *believe* it is an AP2 wheel, please correct me if I'm wrong, seeing as I don't know 100% the differences between the wheels. But in any case, ^that^ wheel was plug and play with the exception of the cruise control, and for that all I did was de-pin, figure out the correct order of the pins and then re-pin the cruise control harness and bingo it worked fine.

^^^^ sick, now i feel better, the reason i was wondering is because i bought a wheel off a guy who called it a ap2 wheel but i said it was an ap1 wheel, i bought it regardless with the intentions of installing either one it might end up being. thanks though man!!!

the difference is that the Ap2 wheel has a two-stage deployment airbag....the Ap1 has a single stage..The Ap1 will plug and play because the EK has single stage....

So does that mean it has one or two SRS plugs? In other words, how do you tell the difference betwee the two air bags? AP1 and AP2

the ap1 has a 2 wire plug the ap2 has a 3 wire plug

Ah ok well if thats the case, then my wheel was indeed an AP1 steering wheel.

maybe im just terrible at searching but ive looked and looked... where can i find a way a "how to" for the cruise control for putting the ap1 steering wheel in my ek coupe?

The 2004-2005 ap2 was single stage too.
