Yup. As per my previous thread https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...light=steering, I bought an S2000 steering wheel. Not any regular one, but a JDM Type-V steering wheel. Think ronjon's painted wheel, but OEM Honda. They are distinguished by having the 'VGS' logo printed on the base, and of course, flat bottomed. i did not get the cruise control harness or screws from the seller, so it isn't in. however, i have a JDM cruise bezel delete, so there isn't a hole in the side of the bezel.

got it for a few reasons:
1. matches the interior paint fairly closely
2. no one else has it (and probably no one will. the cost is fairly prohibitive, google)
3. flat bottom
4. OEM Acura airbag
5. AP1 so it has perf leather

anyway, a few pics




PS. some other oem interior additions i've done:
1. auto seat heater controls (my exgf used to turn on the heater by accident in the summer.. i did not like that)
2. TCS/Cruise button (i can control something else now and still look oem)
3. rear heat vents

 

Definitely !

 

That's clean!

 

Beautiful!

 

i want a flat bottom wheel for shifting while hitting the twisties. my knee often hits the wheel durring heel-toe

 

damn iam so jelous

 

i want....:drools:

next mod: new floormats? xD i kid...i kid....^^

 

how did you reroute the rear floor vents?

 

interesting, i've never had the problem. it's actually fairly useless, flat bottom steering wheels are only good for high ratio steering racks (where the amount you're turning is less so it actually gives more leg room), which is why they gave it to the type-v (variable steering ratio)

too lazy to clean, it's just a lot of dirt.. they go back to black though

i didn't.. just bought the TL center console bezel (with the air vents) and the TL venting duct, which plugs right in. had to trim the console sides to get it to fit (it's on the inside where you don't see, i guess they aren't exactly the same) but it works fine.

 

What do you mean by auto seat heaters, what makes them auto? Also, the tcs button, isnt the wiring harness different? And rear seat vents, where do the tl vents plug in and where exactly do you "trim" the center console? Im thinking about doing that now, since the parts from honda arent that expensive

 

Loooks sooo dope!

 

Is the diameter smaller than a stock wheel ?
Looks good
I just went from silver wood accents back to stock wood.
That wheel's making me want silver again.

 

DAMN that's sexy.

 

1. auto as in automatic transmission, with hi/low settings. you need to rewire them, which is easy if you have the wiring diagram. you can see that they are installed in my first pic. most people thought that the 6speed shifter forced honda to move the buttons, but there are actually cutouts for the switches in the shifter.

2. you just need to go to any honda online parts site and look at the 'duct' diagrams between the CL and the TL. the blower unit has a cap on it on the CL, where the TL has the duct. pull the cap, install the duct.

3. trimming is on the inside side panels on the console. very easy to do. i suppose you could probably order the side panels from a TL, and install it, but i'm not 100% sure if that would work. basically, the ducting goes about half way through the console, and then the side panels carry air the rest of the way, however, in the CL it is more for structural bracing, so you just have to trim maybe 2-3 inches for it to fit.

 

damn

 

Nice

 

agree with all the above positive comments. looks clean and sick as hell

 

eh. not my style.

 

Good choice, that blends with the interior really well! Also, love the pedals, what kind are those?

 

wow...great job man...looks great...very unique

 

just nice

 

looks pretty good. was that a direct swap? I've seen that wheel on a 5th gen prelude.

Also, interested in this rear vent conversion, pics?

 

very nice.... which shift knob is that?

 

Quick question...I have a fog switch out of an Accord (similar to the one you have there), I was wondering what wires go to what to make it aluminate and dim with the other switches?

 

$?

 

x2

 

about 800 bones

 

Supercomputer's pedal set.

 

That looks awesome! you gotta post the link to whee you got it. And is that an RSX airbag?

 

sickkkkkkk

 

looks sick

 

Sick!

 

Very nice. looks great. deff a 1 of a kind

 

sweet......, but i don't know if i would like it in mine though, i like to steer with one hand, and hold the wheel between the two lower spokes on the stock steering wheel, so it would throw that off for me, but otherwise

 

not my style, but looks pretty good man~

 

wow i've never even seen 1 of those before, very nice.

 

Damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

 

looks great matches somewhat

 

FYI for anybody wanting to do the rear TL Vents like he has done..there is a lot more work that to just "trim a little bit of console" The 6 speed ebrake is in the way of the venting, and you will have to relocate a bunch of SRS sensors that are mounted to a bracket that you have to remove. It is definatly not a easy job, not something im doing, returning the parts tomorrow. I tried to get more feedback from the OP In a PM but he didnt respond to me

 

it's not that hard.. i've been busy? what can i say. why would i lie about the difficulty? hahaha.. it's been done before me as well. someone did it back in 2002. i have no idea what SRS sensors you are talking about, either. if i was to do it again, i'd say it would take about 30 minutes for the whole job, done properly.
