WRX Steering Wheel Swap - Horn Wiring
I've installed a WRX steering wheel in my SVX. Could somebody who has done the swap please post the details on the wiring to make the horn work?
Thanks! Mike

Re: WRX Steering Wheel Swap - Horn Wiring
It's very easy. But first, do you intend to (or did you already) swap the airbag charge from the SVX steering wheel?

Re: WRX Steering Wheel Swap - Horn Wiring
I intended to, but the mounting points for the charge were different, so I didn't.

Just a bump. I know somebody must have this knowledge. I'm waiting to get the horn hooked up to get the car inspected so that I can drive it.

Re: WRX Steering Wheel Swap - Horn Wiring
I swapped the internals of the wheels. It's not that crafty.

Re: WRX Steering Wheel Swap - Horn Wiring
Yea, just open up both steering wheels and it will make sense. If you run into problems, then post them up and I'll help out, but it should be fairly obvious once you're looking at it all. Use a SVX wheel that you don't mind sacrificing. I swapped the plug and wiring from the SVX wheel to my legacy one, so it's plug-and-play and I can swap in a stock SVX wheel easily if I wanted to. You will likely have to do a good amount of trimming plastic bits as well. I was also able to swap the cruise controls, by cutting a hole for the stalk (there was already an outline of where the hole would be cut), and mounting it to the existing mounting points that were already in the wheel. I looked through my pictures and I didn't find anything useful from when I did it, sry.

Re: WRX Steering Wheel Swap - Horn Wiring
Is there anyway you can post a pic or 2 I thought its a direct swap to JDM legacy steering wheel( just the charge part) unless your WRX is USDM?

This. The circuit is completed through the spring-loaded bits that the airbag mounts to. The GB wire needs to clip to the right side airbag mount.
