It should be pretty easy if you have Nardi 99's for the FD..

Just pull the old steering wheel.
splice in the air bag connectors and thats it..

one thing you might want to do, there is 2 holes for the blinker return but they are horizontal from eachother, maybe drill some vertical from eachother. i didnt though the only thing when you dont is if you dont turn more than a 1/2 turn you have to turn the blinker off yourself.

DO you have the OEM 99+ Nardi for the RX7??
Sounds like you have the wheel from Miata. Miata wheels look exactly alike except from the back. Which you would need to re-drill the 2 holes.

I have installed two Nari steering wheels in my car. One was a 99 wheel & the current one is a 2002 Spirit R wheel.

I spliced U.S. connectors on both

The big debate or concern is the polarity of the airbag wires (as noted both wires are red).

Im here to tell you that the airbag is not grounded. Therefore you can hook up the wires in either direction. No 50-50 chance about it.

Otherwise don't you think someone would have posted how their bag blew up in their face???? We can't ALL be that lucky & get it right.

My only caution is to disconnect the battery when you start (basicly follow the manual instructions on airbag replacement).

Your only fear is a posible static discharge. To overcome that never touch both wire at the same time.
