AU steering wheel into an EF?

[Kaddis]

just wondering am i able to take a steering wheel from an AU xr and put it into my EF??

anyone know if these are hard to find/expensive??

[InitialD]

Yes AU wheels will fit EF/EL

EFFALCON has a AU one if im correct..

that steeringwheel is availble on EBay and sold at ford aswell... Blue/black/Silver/Red are the colours available IIRC

[Kaddis]

nice! i found them for about $275 but that's without the center pad or any of the center

main reason why i was looking for another wheel is because my air bag isn't working and im 95% sure it's the actual bag

[EFFalcon]

the air bag is an expensive replacement.

how do you know the air bags not working?
there is a problem that when the air bag fuse blows, u have to reset the system to clear the fault.

[Kaddis]

how do you reset the system then?? caus the horn was not working i checked the air bag fuse and it was blown so replaced that then reconnected the horns(don't know why there were disconnected:S) and the horn works fine now but air bag like still is on

when i first start the car and in say the first minute of so it kinda comes on and off then eventually stays on

also what can caus the air bag fuse to blow?

[EFFalcon]

yep
you need to reset the air bag system.

Does that mean you can use your existing EF steering wheel center or something? :

are they much thicker then the el xr6 steering wheel?

Yes, I believe so.

[EFFalcon]

Yeah, AU and EF/EL wheels are interchangable.
you can just whack your EF/EL airbag onto it and you're laughing (except for the colour)
i painted mine with vinyl dye so its black like the steering wheel, been good so far

mrbt1: the AU momo steering wheels are an awesome wheel to hold, much nicer to hold then the normal XR ones.

If the horns not working and the air bag light is on.. Clock spring is most likely broken

[EFFalcon]

the horn works fine now :P
