Steering wheel question

[markylee]

I have just bought a celica steering wheel and it comes with an airbag , my current wheel is a momo with no airbag ,can I just put the celica one straight on? I am not concerned about connecting the airbag....thanks

Yeah, should be fine

I swapped my stock 3-spoke, non-airbag steering wheel for a 7th Gen Celica wheel w/airbag and it was a straight swap in terms of fitting it to the column. I never connected up the airbag as I don't have the connections to do so, but as a precaution, I do swap back to my stock wheel at MOT time.

 

I'm not sure how your horn is currently wired up, but I had to wire in a "B" shaped blade connector and slide it on to one of the protrusions on the back of the airbag to complete the circuit for the horn; someone who has an aftermarket setup may be able to assist in this department better than I can.

I did the swap as well but my car has dual airbags. Still an easy swap, direct plug-in and bolt-in affair, 15 minute job total.

Thanks guys, it arrived today, there is a wire that connects to the wheel with a white 6 point connection on it, so hopefully when I take the momo off it will have the same behind, will be doing this next week, the airbag itself has a yellow connection which I am steering well clear of(pun intended)
