Default DC5 steering wheel in DC2 chassis

Has anyone ever tried this? I like the RSX steering wheels but i don't know if it is possible to put one in my integra. Anyone know?

It is possible, but not worth it IMO, unless you have the tools or parts readily available. One way is the weld the Integra spline onto a DC5 hub. Another way is to bolt up a 96-00 Civic steering column into your Integra

so the slpines are not the same? Why would the steering column work out of a civic and not the current one I have? I am just curious?

You answered your own question. The splines are different on a civic and integra column, therefore switching to a civic column you could run a dc5 steering wheel because they have the same spline as the civic

I'm curious as to this myself, because I've seen DC2's use the DC2R wheel as well as seen Civic's use the DC2R wheel. So if the DC5 wheel can be used on a Civic, why can't it be used on a DC5?

I know the wording sounds facking nuts, but I hope someone understands the question.

Odds are the civics that you saw had the ctr steering wheel whick looks prety much ientical to the itr one but they have a different spline. eg/dc have the same spline ek/dc5 also have the same spline dc2/eg spline ≠ek/dc5 spline

If you look at the back of the hub, the DC2 (and the 92-95, 88-91 Civic's too) there is a notch that runs vertical. The 96-00 Civics and AP1 and Ap2 steering wheel's notches run horitonzal. Hopes that helps!!
