Hey guys,
I need some help in how to install a steering wheel in my 1997 EL Falcon. My first question is, is there a problem with me having air bags installed in my car??. Will this be an issue when installing a new steering wheel?? Also, will any wheel fit the connection?? Thanks Guys Cheers Cranners

If you have an airbag in your car you need to buy a wheel that is able to be fitted with the original air bag see Ferntreegulley wreckers
See the for sale forum!!!

if you have an airbag, it needs to stay! any wheel from an EF/EL/AU will fit, incl the XR/Fairmont/Fairlaine/LTD wheels
i've written a doco on the change-over - *hopefully* it'll be up soon!

i have done this so i can help for once (didnt even f**k this one up fellas) ok unclip the battery.... or the airbag fuse grab a stubbie and wait 5-10mins (this will stop the airbag from breaking your neck if it goes off) their should be two clips behind the steering wheel, remove them and undo the screws the airbag should come off now from memory... lay it down so the bag faces up... be very gentle with it... unplug the horn n s**t... and undo the weird looking screw thingy which is a t-50 torx screw or something? any ways once that comes off its pretty easy just use some elbow greese and bang the top of the wheel, then bottom, then right, then left takes a bit of work but it'll work out and then yeh Im pretty sure thats it, i did this mod in like dec, so im a bit hazy thats for installation
