Default Installing of steering wheel radio controls

Hello again folks,

I have another accord related question for you folks.

I have a 2001 Accord EX sedan with the 6 disc CD/ tape player combo. I have noticed that with the option of the V6 added onto the EX package you get standard steering wheel mounted radio controls and that with the 4 cyl (such as mine is) it is a option.

I want to add this option to my car. As it would be both handy and also add symmetry to the look of the steering wheel.

Do I have to replace the entire steering wheel to add this option or do I simply buy the unit and the wire and assorted hardware(i.e. bolts etc) remove the air bag and install the unit and put the air bag back onto the steering wheel?

Thanks

L

Im pretty sure you wont need a whole new steering wheel. Youll just need the module and any wire harness thats associated with it.
