Wink Wishful thinking perhaps... or not... :)

I would not mind having an option to add the NSX steering wheel (love the flat bottom) to our RLXs ... If it was possible, my pick would be non-carbon-fiber option, keep it nice and "quiet" but definitely would not want to loose heating element on it .... so who knows, it may be even possible, as steering wheels do look similar

Can you see how the heated steering wheel and LKAS/ACC buttons are attached to the steering wheel? Hate to lose them also since the NSX doesn't have those features. I would also be worried about the air bag and if the RLX's will fit in the same spot or you have to use the NSX air bag.

Well they do have something like this on a different website...... I wouldn't do it however because I don't want to loose my heated wheel. I have ordered the woodgrain wheel from Acura in the past for my TL and for my 2014 RLX but that did not have a heated wheel. I wish Acura made at least a wood grain wheel that I could swap out for my 2019. They only make the very top wood grain so I am not sure why they don't have a wood grain wheel that is heated. I think the TLX aspec has a perforated wheel without woodgrain (prior to 2021) that might work but I'm not sure and it's an expensive gamble to take to get it ordered and it doesn't fit. Also it has no wood grain or carbon.

Do you have web-line for the above steering wheel. Wanted to see how the lights at the top worked.

Dropping the heated steering wheel would be hard to give up. Hopefully, it has instructions on how to connect the lights and LED read out on the steering wheel. Sucks not having a HUD on my 19 MDX.
