Idk about you guys, but the steering wheen in my 92 is way to thin, and prety worn out, and i hate the look of it, would it be possible to swap it with a 2nd gen wheel? and the stuff behind it so it matched?

i hate the CC buttons too, theyre like mushy haah

A non airbag one may fit, if the steering column is splined the same. Ones with airbags have a clockspring for the airbag, and the horn and cruise wiring is different.
 






well i could maybe splice the cc, the horn would be easy, not sure if i could just take the bag out?
 






The airbag ones don't have the sliprings that your Gen I will have, I have a '94 Ex that I ended up using the entire Gen II column. The '94 steering wheel has an internal spline, and the '97 that I used has 2 flats and no splines. You may want to consider an after market wheel.
 






hmm ill look more into it a little later
