Angry me, poor steering wheel!!!!!!

Yeah today my temper got the best of me and the steering wheel got it. Does anyone know where to get a replacement cover? I know I'm stupid, so go easy on the flaming...lol

Since you're a rage-a-holic... how long can you go without a hit of rage-a-hol?



About the cover -- Dealer, online honda/acura parts store (www.acuraautomotiveparts.org ?), or if you're really lucky, www.car-part.com (scrapyard inventory across north america).

I guess your girlfriend or wife is happy it was the steering wheel cover and not her face!

Sometimes, when I'm really really mad, I'll just slap myself a little to snap myself out of it. And it also reminds me that it isn't much fun to get hit.

Maybe you can get one of those stainless steel plates that they use in the boy scouts and tape that to your steering wheel? Super tough!
Try getting a spare steering wheel from the wreckers!

You'll need a complete airbag assembly....the "cover" is part of the airbag. It will still be functional though, it just doesnt look so good. Generally drivers side airbags are in the $500-1000 range.... Go easy next time

Be careful with the install and make sure your battery is unplugged. You'll be surprised what small amount of current could deploy the thing in your face.

Dam it must suck to have a temper. I would never take out my anger on my car. The only thing your TSX does is give you reliable and safe transportation.

Next time you get mad think of baby ducks following there mother into a pond. A pond of murder. Opps. forget that last part!

lol...the worst though is when you get angry and you put your fist through a wall and hit a stud...

I'll tell you this that my rage has significantly gone down this year since i've been hitting the weights almost religiously.
