Hey is it hard to switch steering wheels. I got a 95 civic, the steering wheel is peeling and it bugs the hell out of me. I'm just wondering if it is hard to switch it with another stock civic steering wheel and if I can do it myself without much complication.

Airbags? or no?

Cuz, if you have no airbags, it should be super easy....

if you dont have good mechanical skills i would leave it to some one who does! but its not that hard. remove the battery cables. the on the side of the wheel there are two torx bits remove them and pull the airbag from the wheel unplug the sensor,then make sure your wheel is point strait and and whit the wheel locked remove the center 19mm bolt an d remove the wheel. There is a clock spring with a arrow pointing up what ever you do DO NOT SPIN IT!!!! keep the arrow pointing up if you dont you will have a SRS light that you can not get to turn off. and install is just a reverse of the removal.
