Default EF steering wheel removal

Sorry about that, should have read the FAQ's, well I have a little write up if anyone wants the pics too... here they are...

Step One: Look at your Honda Steering Wheel...lol Tools you need, phillips screw driver, tiny flat tip screw driver, 19mm sock (extended socket recommended) 3/8 ratchet and extension.



Step Two: You see that Honda logo...use a tiny flat tip screw driver and remove it...and now you see a nut down there...19mm socket/ extension will work, use a 3/8th's or 1/2" ratchet if you need too... I used my steering wheel lock to hold it in place while taking the nut off the steering shaft and then returned the wheel to the forward position.



Step 3: Now that the wheel is off, be very careful of this connector here, as you may accidently break the tabs off the clock spring...



Step 4: The last bit is pretty self explanitory as you see the three little screws that hold the clock spring, you need to remove these to get to the two larger screws that hold the switch assembly. there are 3 connectors on the switch assmebly that need to unclipped as well to take it off. And thats it, just do the following steps in reverse order.

You're EXCELLENT write up saved me from trying to undo the steering wheel in a 1991 civic hatch by attempting to remove the unseeable screws in the back of the wheel.

THANKS AGAIN, it helped immensely!

3 years old but I can't knock this guys write up. I googled how to remove the steering wheel when I first got my car. Of course it is easy if you've done it before or know that the bolt is behind the emblem, but not everyone does.
