Default OE Steering wheel swap??

I'm considering a steering wheel swap for my 04 EP3... I like the OE steering wheel with the red stitching but its a little beat up. What other OE steering wheels can be swapped on?? (RSX, S2000??) I would like to keep the cruise controls also.

An easy answer is to get the steering wheel redone however you want it done. It's not as expensive as you think. So either get the one done that's in your car now if you can deal with it not running for a week or two, or buy one in lousy shape (so that it's as cheap as possible), then sell your original one once you get the replacement back.

I had mine done by Dallas Custom Wheel in red leather / charcoal alcantara and silver stitching. They've done a good amount of work for me, and I'd recommend them highly.

Thanks for the reply tommycrx. I guess having the steering wheel redone would also be a good option. What did it cost you to have yours redone???

Hmmm, I forget - best to just call them directly and ask (they're very easy to talk to); my guess is $350?

You can swap an RSX or S2k steering wheel on the EP3. You can remove your cruise control unit and the airbag from the EP3 wheel and move it directly over to the S2k or RSX wheel. I have an EP3 and S2k and fitted the Momo EP3-R steering wheel onto my S2000. just had to swap the controls and airbag back onto the new wheel
