Default Steering wheel question

Do all steering wheels from 92 to 99 interchange?

I was looking for something a little different to do for a mod. Could you not connect the airbag?

I have a wheel from a 97 in the basement. We can find out.

I think Harofreak wanted to change but his research showed that the radio steering wheel controls were not compatible. A multimeter will tell.

My SE doesn't have SWI.... I can imagine what a nightmare it would be to add it. Wonder if the bolt pattern and hub are the same?

If you swapped the whole column, you're most of the way done. You would need to get a length of the harness that plugs into the radio and connect before or after the large column electrical connector.

I have that too.

If you want, we can find out at NEBF 2. I have both a 93 column and a 97 column here. The 93 should be the same as your 95 and the 97 should be typical of any 96-99

I'd like to see if the 97 wheel will fit on my column?

OK. I just figured that we wouldn't have to take your car apart until we know that the splines and what not were the same.
