    Oops I've seen it. :) Looks good. Wonder if some cars had different column. Cus someone saying integra wheel didn't fit there's recently. But it always used to be Integra and civic eg wheels that go on. Ep3 wheel normally fits ek civic. Weird.

    Either way looks great. Nice car.

    Right bud been looking for answers and found this from some usa forums 

     

     

    low impact collisions and another for high speed collisions. Using the airbag type not matched to the car could cause your SRS system to not work properly.

    ALWAYS CHECK THE LINKS AND SEARCH SO YOU DON'T RUN INTO PROBLEMS OTHERS ALREADY HAVE EXPERIENCED.

    The following Hondas use 33 spline:

    98-02 Accord
    03-07 Accord
    08-10 Accord
    03-07 Accord Euro R
    96-00 Civic (377mm diameter)
    01-05 Civic
    06-10 Civic
    97-01 CRV
    96-00 Domani
    97-00 EL
    01-05 EL
    01-08 Fit
    09-10 Fit
    99-06 HRV
    00-06 Insight
    97-01 Prelude
    99-09 S2000
    02-07 RSX
    03-07 TSX

    The following Hondas use 29 spline:

    90-93 Accord (377mm diameter)
    94-97 Accord
    88-91 Civic
    92-95 Civic
    92-97 del Sol (371mm diameter)
    92-95 Domani
    90-93 Integra
    94-01 Integra
    88-91 Prelude (371mm diameter)
    92-96 Prelude
     

    So i recon if you count your splines you should be able to see if one will go on 

     

    That said in the forum theres a chap saying his had the correct splines but his shaft was marginally to short and had the bottom section extended, his bud had the same car same spline count but correct length shaft 

     

    I would go out check but my backbox was pretty corroded and decided to part ways with the rest of the system lol so its in my local waiting on a box being delivered but correct me if im wrong the ep3 wheels were red stiched and s2k were black stiched but airbags are 100% interchangeable......... but so are the wheels so doesnt actually help but sure mine is black stiching

    Yeah i went back yo the chap i got it from to get the low down on how he got it to fit, he said it bolted right on even the electrical connectors just plugged in so totally plug and play 

     

    Only bit thats not perfect is the back of the wheel rubbed ever so slightly against column shroud but its stopped now  

     

    Ws going to go back to standard wheel but think i will kerp the ep3 one now

    Well since this is for sure the place to be with its fountain of priceless knowledge, really great members and i plan on never getting rid of this super cool wagon ive decided to start one of these 

     

     

    So picked up this its a 2000 d14w4 es spec auto on 125k one company car for first 3 years, two elderly owners 17 years then a younger chap just over a year.

     

    The car came with receipts for everything and i mean everything down to windscreen wipers.

     

    The car came to me with optional extras like speedline alloys, larger fogs. Also came with a few wee trick bits like a vtis front valance, proline coilovers and a ep3 steering wheel (which everone says dont fit but previous owner said it went straight on even the wiring just plugged straight in shrug.gif1)

     

    So far ive done a few wee bits and bobs 

     

    First up i purchased big daves double din console and took the plunge to cut out quite a bit behind the factory set up lol 

     

    Tidied up the front grill with a wee paint using a satin surround and a gloss badge 

     

    Had the timing belt and water pump replaced 

     

    Done a couple small repairs of my own replacing a abs sensor and stripping dow the drivers door mechanism as it wsnt working. Turns out a pivot point hd sheared so drilled and tapped it to just a bolt then it stripped off 6 teeth ....... did i say i can be tight and a bit mguver lol so they were ground flat and drilled and tapped to take m3 bolts which were then dremeled down to reshape as teeth 

     

    Fixed is fixed and if it works it aint stupid i believe the expressions are, if you hadnt guessed im a scot so can be very tight with money rlol.gif1

     

    Current diy job is improving the grubby sagging headliner (bear in mind i said im tight and improving not fixing as that would imply i was doing a good job lol) 

     

     

    So come this point if you havent fell asleep or gave up reading my drivel well done and thank you, heres some pics to make it worth while
