Default woodgrain steering wheel....

hey guys, i don't know much about steering wheels but i really like the luxury look of wood grain steering wheels. i want to get the 98-00 wood grain steering wheel for my 95 ex. but i don't know if it'll fit. what is there to know about steering wheels to find out if these types of conversions work or not? thanks guys for your help.

If you're less concerned about an airbag (passenger side would still work btw) jdmcali-luv has a Nardi woodgrain for sale.

I actually was thinking about this post yesterday as I saw a car with the oem woodgrain - you could see if the short hubs are the same from like NRG and if they are then the splines would be the same size - meaning you could use the wheel

So I just looked for you to double check -

NRG's site has the same short hub for the AP1/CD5/97+ TL

http://www.weaksauceparts.com/...age=1

Which would mean it would definitely work on a 96+ Accord, there's still some debate as to whether or not all 94/95 Accords have the smaller spline. If you had 96 I'd say you'd be good to go with it, but because you have a 95 you'd might be pushing your luck.

In that thread you'll see that dude fit the S2k wheel (AP1) on his 95 Accord but it caused quite a stir as the thought was they have a smaller steering column.
