    90 Prelude Si Steering Wheel

    Just put this in yesterday



    A lot more comfortable IMO and suites my one handed driving style better.

    I will be doing the same. At the moment I'm using a washer but the horn isn't functional, it is still a work in progress. I got the idea from my brother who put one in his G1 Legend so I grabbed another off the yard and put her in the 3g Accord.

    Re: 90 Prelude Si Steering Wheel

    I did this on my Accord too. In fact, I reshaped the plastic around the combination switch. It looks 100% stock now and the steering wheel is still intact. I'll take a picture of this soon.

    Talking Re: 90 Prelude Si Steering Wheel

    I did the same thing,had to shave the back of the wheel,and the plastic. mine was a little more difficult due to the fact that i have a different combo switch,a different plastic surround,and the lude wheel. nothing fit. I'll post a pic as soon as I find it.

    It looks a lot like the S2000 wheel. Much more comfortable and I'd take it over a Momo any day.

    Re: 90 Prelude Si Steering Wheel

    Wow that looks great! Much nicer than the craptastic wheel I have in my Civic, too.

    Of course I'm lazy. If I wanted to work on my car I'd have gotten a DSM

    The same car I got the wheel from has some really nice front seats in mint condition. Anyone know if these will fit my 89 Hatch without modification?

    its like a 95% bolt on swap. ive done it on my dx. you just swap the rails from your old seats. and they are more cumffy and it does not feel like you are going to fall out when you are in the twisties.

    Sweet ass, I'll go pull them out now before the weather gets a hold of them.

    The ones that came with my car aren't bad but I love the feel of a "bucket" seat.

    Re: 90 Prelude Si Steering Wheel

    You trim off some of the back of the steering wheel so it does not rub.
    I'd show you mine but I kind of butchered it up when I did mine
