My girlfriend just got an integra, and the steerign wheel was pretty nasty

So i got her a new one, im just wondering how hard it is to replace it and what tools are needed?

Are there any other posts that go over it? I searched but im not familiar with integras at all...

please help

 

not ahrd, hard finding the airbag key though since the botls for the airbag isnt a normal bolt.

 

This is pretty easy. I suggest getting a manual. Main thing is you need a little 8-sided star looking allen head screw driver to loosen the four bolts on the side and underneath the steering wheel. This is to remove the airbag. Make sure you disconnect the battery first and when removing the airbag make sure your face isn't in the way. After you remove the airbag you need a 17mm socket with a short extension and a wrench. Loosten counter clockwise. Before you slide the steering wheel off, look at the splines on the male end of the steering wheel shaft. There should be a little dash of yellow paint indicated by the factory on where the steering wheel lines up to be level. Slide the old one off and the new one on, do everything in opposite order. Done.

 

if my memory serves me right, that "star" driver in something like a t25 or t35. and that nut holding the wheel might be a 19mm.

 

it's really simple. just need the right size tools. i swaps my brothers out just last night and it took me like 5-10 minutes. prolly because i've done it once before, but it's really easy.

 

correction. that star driver is a t30. my bad
