i have that already. I read the instruction like 20 times already. The problem is not how to do it. It's the puller. I don't have a puller so i want to see is there anyway to do it without the puller. otherwise i will have to go to my mechanics to do it for me and charge me.

If you live in SoCal I'll let you use mine. I really dont think there is another way. Unless you have a piece of steel with 3 holes one in the center and two slots on each side..... basically a home made steering wheel puller. Or if you had a slide hammer.... but no you would still need something to connect it to. Hmmmmmmm..... I think you need a puller..... which you already knew...... so yeah this post is kinda pointless. But I have one if you live in SoCal... I think I said that already.

If you have an autoparts store around you like autozone or something like that, they sometimes will let you borrow their tools as long as you leave an I.D. you could just take it out to the parking lot remove your old wheel put the new one on and give it back. I have done this for an OBDII scanner and a serpentine belt tool.

If i am correct, i got it off from ebay for less than 170 shipped. burlwood. I search around and i believe the 01-02 mdx should fit. I will do a DIY with photos of it.
