S2000 steering wheel in an EK
Hello everyone
So after spending 48 hours of relentless searching I was only able to locate 3-4 posts that detail installation of an S2000 steering wheel in an EK (mine is a 2000 Si), the problem was all the pictures are no longer visible so all the instructions are not available. Knowing that an AP1 or AP2 would be a simple plug and play I went and found my self an AP1 steering wheel.
I removed the old wheel per instructions still visible (pretty simple) Than came the hard part....I was set on having cruise control...that proved to be a real challenge as there is not one post that describes the wiring. You do have to splice and re-wire the S2K harness into the civic harness, luckily they both have three wires each. After 4 times and lots of frustration I was able to find the right combination of course with the help of a very good friend:
S2K harness: into Civic harness:
Light green/red - Gray
Blue/red - Red
Light green/black - Blue
Air bag plugged right in but I have SRS light on (will try to reset)
Driving impression : awesome, it feels great, grips are perfect, it's lighter than Si wheel making the steering feel more communicative, more natural, it's smaller in diameter yet does not block any of the gauges, and I have it in the lowest position.
Best money spent so far, the car feels so much more of a drivers car now, great mod.......
Hope this saves some one lots of headaches....as I endured two days of frustration trying to figure out the correct wiring for CC.
