Default Steering wheel question

Does any one know if there are any Honda airbag assemblys that will match up with an rsx steering wheel, so that I can replace my acura emblem or are their any other suggestions.

If you want a fully functional airbag that will fit inside the RSX steering wheel, an 02-05 Civic Si airbag ONLY. The Type-R equivalents (EP3R/DC5R) will NOT be functional.

I have done this modification myself along with countless others.

Aren't airbag fitments specific to a particular model? I'd assume it takes into consideration all other design parameters such as unibody structure, seat position, vehicle weight etc. therefore using a different assembly could be hazardous. If passive restraint safety is not an issue, an aftermarket or racing wheel may be an easier solution.
