Icon6 Steering wheel HELP?

Well to start I sean alout of Honda's with new steering wheels on and they all stick out WAY to far. Now my CRX is mine and my dads car and we both don't have that long of legs. So is there any good kits to get to put on an new steering wheel without it sticking out to far???

1. Buy an English book.

2. Most standard aftermarket steering hubs and wheels will place the aftermarket wheel in exactly the same position as the stock wheel - meaning the reach from the steering wheel rim to the turn signal and wiper switch stalks does not change.

All you need is a standard length hub for '88-91 Civic/'90-93 Integra with the correct bolt pattern (Sparco/Momo, Nardi/Personal, Grant, or whatever wheel you may be using) and a non-dished steering wheel.

Do not use a short hub with a non-dished steering wheel. Short hubs are meant to be used with quick release mechanisms, spacers, or dished wheels; using a short hub with a non-dished wheel will mean that you'll constantly be turning your wipers and turn signals on as your knuckles hit the combination switch stalks.

I think that you're getting the idea that standard length hubs place the wheel closer to the driver because they're visibly long. This is only an illusion, because the stock steering wheel includes a rather long hub section that you aren't really noticing because it's hidden by sculpted plastic shrouds.

Would that be all I need to install the new steering wheel or is there something else?
