Would MDX steering wheel fit?
From the outside, the wheel looks exactly like the ones in TL/CL Type S (with the perforated leather and all) which I know will definitely fit 6G accords. but inside... anyone know?

What's the difference between the Accord and MDX wheels? I like my 6G Accord EX wheel. Not leather, but it has a good thick feel and the controls are well placed. Activating the horn is firm enough for light presses, but you can slam it quick and predictably for emergencies. Is that worth changing?

And about the horn...the airbag (with horn) stays, it's just the wheel you swap.
I swapped mine, and for $50, it was the best mod for the money on my car to date.

"Hello,
I have a MDX steering wheel installed on my accord.
From the pictures you have posted, mine is the middle one! I think mine is a 2001 MDX (not sure what year). It fits fine, no mods whatsoever!
If yours is on the right, then I have a feeling that its different, if you look at your OEM steering wheel, you should see some similarities with the MDX (middle one). If not then it will not fit!
Thats my guess...
ps: I didnt install it, my uncle did..."
So I guess there are some variations. Those guys on AV6 seemed to be guessing it was the '03 MDX wheel that didn't work.
Anyway, I "borrowed" a good pic from over there.
Mine looked like the second one, worked fine without modification. I think the left one needs two new screws is all. And the third one, on the right, doesn't seem to fit.

anyone know if the CL / TL wheel conversion would work on an Integra?
I am posting here since you guys seem to know a lot about wheel swaps and no-one in the Integra forum knew when I asked about this. Thanks.

It may fit on other cars, but would require the airbag as well (big $).
Did Honda ever offer a leather wrapped wheel for integra's? If so, might be easier to find an Integra one.
