Default TypeR steering wheel w/airbag installed.

i just installed my TypeR steering wheel but came across couple issues. Does anyone know how to rewire the typeR steering wheel to the 03 typeS plug or get rid of the SRS light?

I've been doing some research because I would like to install a DC5-R steering wheel into my EG. What I have found out is that the USDM RSX airbag is a 2 stage airbag and the JDM ITR for whatever reason is a 1 stage. I want the JDM one and this works out well since my airbag system is a 1 stage system. I imagine this probably has something to do with the fact that you are getting an SRS light.

I believe it does have a 2 stage... I plan on making kind of a hybrid steering wheel that has ep3 parts as well so I can have cruise control. I'm gonna use the ITR wheel and airbag with the back plastic pieces and cruise control/srs reel from an ep3. Done deal!

hmmm.. might have to look in k-pro.. i wonder what that would be under for the SRS. when you took out your seats are you meaning you replaced them with different ones? reason my SRS is on is because i can't plug my typeR steering wheel to the typeS SRS.

Ok... I don't know then. I didn't realize it had two plugs I just thought that the plug on the airbag differed from the srs reel plug. hmmmm....
