Airbag Steering Wheel

Will a 90-92 Airbag wheel fit my 88 RS? And if so how do I get the airbag working?

You can't make it functional. Well you could, but there is so much engineering put into the airbag system it would be imposible to do it right.

You would have to buy a complete set of wires and sensors. You need to mount all the sensors, I think there are 7, and connect it to the fuse panel. I dunno how it is gonna work, and you'd probably deploy the bag installing it. Have fun, but IMO it ain't worht it. I am ditching my air bag steering wheel for a nice Grant one.
