help swapping steering wheels
right guys i have got a STI steering wheel for my wrx, but i am having a bit of a problem, the wheel i got doesnt have the little connector at the back plugged in so you can connect the rest. it didnt come with a squib either im assuming i can just use the one thats on the car.
i know this i hard without pics but photobucket is playing up at mo and wont upload anything, as soon as i can i will upload some pics and it will make this so much easier
thanks

ive sorted it guys
This is what I did,
I took the connector that connects to the charge for the air-bag off (be very careful as there are three tiny clips and they could easily break). then i realised that the connector for the sti charge is a little different when you look at it, but the little black connector actually comes out and your left with two little pins, which the old connector connects straight too, the only thing that you loose is the piece of plastic from the back of the charge that holds the other end of the connector, but its really not a problem.
next when you put the new wheel on you will find that you still have a connector left over (black plug with spade connector at the other end), but thats not a problem as there is a spade connector on the airbag of the ST steering wheel, so just connect and put it all together and hey presto you now have a cool Sti steering wheel
hope this helps
