Default Replace stearing wheel on car w/airbag? - 03-19-2006 , 08:12 PM






Is it possible to substitute another steering wheel on a car that has an
airbag? Does it have to be from a car of the same manuf.? Same model?
I'd like a leather steering wheel, but the truck model I'm thinking of
getting didn't offer it. However, I think the SUV of the same maker did,
and/or later years of that model did.
I guess the real question is are airbag steering wheels self contained,
just needing to be powered, or is the impact sensor located somewhere
else. If it is, is the signal it sends to deploy the airbag standardized,
at least among manufs.? If that's true, how do you make sure which
models/years are compatible.
Anyway, I'm hoping somebody out there in cyberspace is knowledgeable
enough on this to know

TIA
