Weight? Hehe I would rather not have them. After being in two wrecks in which the airbags did come out... they are simply annoying. Crap gets everywhere, powder irritates, car is dirty, they hurt... and if you are wearing your seatbelts and the crash isnt above say 100 mph total, they don't even do anything. The much less the car would weigh would be awesome.

I believe they weren't required in Japan.

I saw a Honda Integra R steering wheel once and creamed my pants. I bet the entire air bag system weighs at least 50 lbs... and I hate airbags so... haha.

i dunno, i really like that steering wheel, looks much cleaner flat.... its just the like the 4th gen wheel, but new... plus the leather. I hate my 5th gen airbag wheel, the finish in center is all weird and sticky like,and it doesnt get clean.

well you would need to rig up your console piece because the gauge bezel would be backards....
