Other Honda / Acura steering wheels that might work on the NSX?

[Ron1999]

Kind of a strange question, and if not forum appropriate - feel free to move / delete.

My new-to-me 1996 NSX-T came with an after market MOMO steering wheel, its cute, its tiny, but i dont like it (plus, i miss the illusion of safety that an airbag provides)
Initially, thought was to find a stock steering wheel, yet, i cant bring myself to pay 1K for a steering wheel. sorry.

Now to the question on hand - is there any other Honda / Acura model that share the same / close steering wheel spline and tech that i could use as a temp solution instead of the MOMO one?

I have access to many late 90's-early 2000's Honda and Acura models (TL2.5/RL3.5/oddiseys/Accord/Civic/preludes/What not) - Is there any model with a steering wheel (and idealy an airbag) that might work?

Thanks in advance and a pic of the dreaded MOMO

I guess we need a WTT? forum? You could post your wheel in the parts-for-sale, stating that you're willing to trade for an OEM wheel with airbag.

Another option S2000, CTR, RSX wheel but not much cheaper: (that can have an airbag active, requires AP1 charge)

Search turned up empty. Not sure if this is general discussion or DIY.

Loving my NSX, but I just can't seem to get used to the horn buttons - too used to pressing the center airbag like my other cars. Several times I've not been able to activate my horn quickly, due to my initially pressing the airbag.

I see this as a safety issue. Are there any solutions/wheels to preserve the airbag and allow central pressure to activate the horn? Keeping the cc buttons would be a bonus, and it would be nice to look period correct, unlike a complete 2023 wheel replacement/gaudy carbon fibre fest.

Disclaimer: If you attempt any of this, it is at your own risk. Let me reiterate the service manual and factory say explicitly not to modify the SRS system or any portion thereof.

Now for you adventurous types, read on!

I. Purpose:

a. To greatly enhance the NSX’s interior.

II. Background | Research:

​

a. I was able to find most of what I needed to know through online research on forums --Honda-tech was the most help. I started out by researching the affected systems and their components: SRS computer, cable reel, sensors, detonators, inflators, and the steering...
