DIY Steering Wheel Change?

2string1 · 09-04-2020, 07:46 AM

Is it fairly safe to do a DIY steering wheel change over? I'm a little nervous dealing with the airbag. I've looked at some vids and it looks fairly simple to do.

I know it's going to be an easy swap. I'm just wondering about, what are the chances of the airbag going off?

Here is a real good vid. The only thing is, when he hooks up the battery and turns on the car he makes sure he sits in the passenger seat. lol That makes me wonder.

Done...Thank You all for your help. Does the Z that came with the AKEBONO breaks have a different suspension then the Z without?
