Just something to know if the bidding goes too high...
I see... I'll keep that in mind when bidding, Thanks

I bought a brand new in factory box 02 Acura MDX taupe Perf. Leather/Wood steering wheel and installed it in my 98 Accord EX-L (Ivory interior). Almost a perfect match. Saved me $340 off of retail from a dealership locally. It was $160 from a dealership in North Carolina. Took about an hour to install, only because the steering wheel bolt on removal stripped so we had to get a tap and die kit and re-tap the threads to accept the bolt. Eeeek.

Anyways, get the genuine Honda/Acura wheel, it's much better than the leather cover, and it's a much better color match.

I also heard it's lighter than the leather steering wheel from accords.

Lighter in weight yes. Color - it was a little bit darker, but you can only tell if it's full on sunlight in the car, which is rare because I have pretty dark tint all the way around. If I have direct sunlight in the middle of the day coming through my open sunroof, you can notice a little difference.
