March 12, 200818 yr Will these interchange? Both 1995 Imprezas. The one with the horn buttons is an early 1995 and the one without is a later 1995. (Same wheel used through like 2000 I think). Can I change out the one with the buttons for the one without?? Thanks, Todd
March 12, 200818 yr I would have to actually see the plug for the air bag. My guess is there is no difference other than the "look" of the air bag cover. I would figure that the entire steering wheel would need to be changed as the two horns operate differently, but might be worth a look into swapping just the air bags out. I would not try to remove the cover from the air bags, just swap 'em and see.... Oh, and if you don't have cruise control, now would be the time to add it since you'll be in there and can install the switch. Lewis
March 12, 200818 yr Author So essentially it's just the airbag plug? I just have a newer wheel sitting around and I like it better. Todd
March 14, 200818 yr airbag connectors will NOT be the same.... Jamie There you have it... I'd go with the answer from the Parts Pro man... But you could "cut and splice" the right connector into place:lol::lol:, Ummm, NO. Lewis
March 14, 200818 yr There you have it... I'd go with the answer from the Parts Pro wo-man... Lewis there fixed it for ya..... Jamie
March 14, 200818 yr You can always splice the connector. I did this to get an 02-03 WRX steering wheel into my '97 OBW, and it works just fine and dandy. Just depends on how bad you really want that two button wheel in there I guess
March 16, 200818 yr there fixed it for ya..... Jamie Ahem, "Parts person"... lets be politically correct if were going to correct others. Besides, the person I most often work with at the dealer is a woman, and usually spot-on far more than anyone else in the department. (thanks Leah!) Especially with all the wacko questions I have. SUBARU3, Just make sure to ground yourself and remove the static electricity from your body prior to working on it. A grounding strap or wire should connect you to the metal frame of the airbag itself while performing the work as well. Its only a blasting cap, (with an explosive mixture to be detonated by it) and should be treated as such, no big deal. Have fun! Lewis
March 16, 200818 yr I'm a bit afraid to screw with it! I better settle for the buttons! Todd That's okay. Buttons is nice too!!!
