    The reverse view of this wheel looks empty inside though?

    I think the airbag is there without the explosive charge to prevent an accidental deployment.

    So do you just throw a bag of black powder in there during the install? Or is the charge included with the sale but packaged separately for safety? I had a guy at a yard in Australia tell me he couldn't ship the steering wheel precisely because of the risk of a charge deployment - he said they were considered explosives for the purposes of some trade regulations.

    You, and he, are correct. Airbags can't legally be transported by air. Shipping UPS ground is okay, though. I purchased some seats w/undeployed airbags shipped, and the salvage yard had to jump through some hops to get them to me.

    But, people still ship by air anyway *lol*

    Are the only differences between the two steering wheels just that the JDM are all black & the US is 2 tone?

    Or

    Is the JDM 3 spoke & the US 4 spoke?

    I'm asking because the steering wheel in my 99 Amigo looks perzakly like the VX except it's all black.

    Driving the Proton today. I'll try to snap a pic of each when I get home.

    IIRC it does NOT look like the MOMO shown above. It looks like the VX except it's all black.

    I didn't get a chance to take any pix but the Amigo Steering Wheel is identical to the VX except it's all black.

    Tom, does it look like the steering wheel on the left? I grabbed that one from a Rodeo to replace my worn out red/black steering wheel.
