So I have the pewter color I guess it is. But I want to go all tan and wood grain. I have everything sitting in the garage. seats, carpet, trim, tan suede for the headliner and rear speaker panel, glove box, airbag cover on dash. The issue im running into is the dash, whats the best option to go from here, just by a new pad or replace the whole dash. Also I want to go with a diffrent stearing wheel, somthing more sport'y but luxury. Will this be a problem removing the air bags go as far as when I need to have it inspected....thanks.

airbags are application specific and are specific to each steering wheel, can't just mount it in there lol

the cushion is packed a certain way and is designed with the OEM cover's tear section. if you had an aftermarket wheel i doubt you'd want the OEM cover, as it won't flow with any aftermarket wheel. removing that cover and fitting it into another aftermarket piece would not be recommended.. lol. it hasn't been tested with the rigorous and detailed types of testing the OEM one has
i'm just sayin it wouldn't be safe/reliable so don't crash into anything :p

Lol, thats why I was wondering if there is a company that makes aftermarket steering wheels with airbags............i in no way would even think of trying to rig a air bag to a stearing wheel it doesnt belong on....lol

lol it'd be funny to see it go off though. i love seeing bad tests, interior trim pieces go flying at 70MPH
