Nice pic, I like the wheel.. Let's try to keep this thread on target. The guy wants to sees pics of aftermarket wheels, not hear lectures for the safety police about airbags like on the last thread. That thread became a total waste of time.

To remove the airbag, disconnect the battery and let the car sit for 20-30 minutes, then remove the airbag by taking the 4 screws out on the back side of the wheel.
After removing the airbag you will get a light on the dash. I cut the wire to turn off the light.
Any aftermarket steering wheel will require an adapter.

I remember a Blaupunkt sp? that had the little remote that fit on the steering wheel. I guess there are others out there as well. I just like how mine are setup on the stock wheel.

Most aftermarket head units work with a PAC SWI-X. It's a box that mounts in the dash and you program it to work with your head unit, using the stock steering wheel controls. It's got a little transmitter that you mount somewhere pointed at the head unit. I've got one and it works great.
