Saw this ad pop up on the side of my browser when I was trolling memebase.
Doesn't look like a bad pickup?

Does that steering wheel have an airbag? I can't tell and being a 94 GPX, mine doesn't. But i'd like a wheel that fits properly, current one blocks my tacho

It's a factory Mitsubishi/Momo wheel.
Yes it has an airbag, as long as it's still in there.
...but as you can see it has a cover over it which I would assume that the leather is worn out.
The airbag can be removed....carefully
I had the same one with the airbag removed but the leather is worn and torn, it's in the garage now waiting for a possible future revamp.

Oh fair enough, thanks phil. I'd probably end up with a bleeding nose trying to remove it

If you had an airbag explode into your face when your up against the steering wheel, theres a good chance thats the end of you
Much more dangerous than they look (or so the stories ive heard tell me)
