another steering wheel swap -- with questions
swapped a TSX wheel and airbag on that i bought in the black market ---
am very happy with the look --- TSX wheel itself seems the same overall diameter, however not as thick as the CLS wheel (a bit of a sacrifice for the look, just have to get used to it i guess) --- airbag and horn wired fine, had to wait to attempt wiring cruise and radio controls which brings me to my question below ---
Does anyone have a wiring diagram for both the CLS and '04 TSX steering wheel controls ----
Id also like to ask for the wiring diagram for the '05 TSX as i have another set of controls and like the contrasting buttons on the '05 better than the solid silver on the '04 --- i beleive '05 had illuminated controls so there are more wires (i know i will probably not be able to hook up the illumination without getting pretty involved) -- but just need to know which ones are which.
The only picture i have before my camera died and i was too lazy to find another set of spare AA's --- please pardon my dry cleaning in the passenger seat, had just dropped off/picked up a bunch of neck ties and hadnt brought them inside yet.

Yea that looks great. I like how the 3 spoke wheel looks. More sporty. Just like the 3 spoke fardi wheel on my miata looks nice but no controls on it.
So I guess you're going to do all the wiring yourself? How much you get the wheel for?

yes no controls as of now --- mainly because i need the diagrams. I was just too anxious not to put the steering wheel on at all...
The swap itself is actually pretty straightfoward --- the wheel i had came with a female horn plug that i had to swap with the CLS but the airbag plugged right in...
The only thing im waiting on is shipping for a pigtail harness for the radio/cruise and the wiring schematics so i can know which wire is what in both the CL and TSX.
