Default ITR wheel fits nice in a CRX (and update on my project)

Hey guys, i know theres been talk about how well an ITR wheel fits in a CRX. Well after some time, and some modifications it is in. And it fits WITH the turn signal canceller, and clearance for the high beam switch as well. Here are a couple pics of it installed:





I also have some pics since it came back from paint. Wasnt sure if i could post the pics (cause of the rules), but if a mod approves, you can link em if you'd like. But new moldings are in, rear fog light is working, but not 100% complete yet, JDM tails are in (outer sections only), EF8 spoilers on, the exterior is pretty much together.

so here's the link: http://homepage.mac.com/schwan....html

hope you all like

It's so new it almost looks too black to match the rest of the interior, but it definitely still looks nice. Good job! The whole car is lookin clean too.

thanks guys. the wheel was just about brand new, i dont think the horn button was every installed on this wheel. and yes it is a little more "black" than the rest, but i have yet to clean up the dash and put the rest of the console in. I think when i do that, and brighten it up, i think it will flow a little better as well.

thanks for the kind words everyone

yes, they are JDM folding mirrors, if you click the link you will see a lot more JDM parts

Im will be cleaning the interior, since we keep wiring, grinding, working in general in there, i was just waiting for a point when I could, and now im at that point

and i payed a decent price for my wheel, it came from Austrailia and i don't think its ever been used, around 325 for it shipped for it.

thanks again everyone

ok, most people (from what i found online) take out the turn signal canceller and it will fit. but that leaves a gap, and the canceller wont work.

My brother and I modified the steering shaft, we grounded down 3/16" off the shaft (where the shaft bulges up) so the steering wheel could sit further down on the shaft.

After that, we were closer, but not enough, so I took the back of the steering wheel and ground that down to make it fit, and make new notches in it for the turn signal canceller.

after that, the nut fit completley on the shaft with the wheel on, and that was it.

it was out of a 95 Integra LS. I wanted to keep mph (so now JDM), and i wanted the redline to be close to correct, so i used an LS.
