nevermind, just grabbed one of the black ones ;) thanks!

Nice! Looks like they're both sold, hope the other one went to a forum member as well. I think there are still some armrests for you LX owners out there!

unfortunately the armrest only fits on the LX owners drivers side =( better off with the storage

I bought the other black one. I hope it fits my 08 SC. It looks like the correct wheel for my application although listed as ?03-05? Pilot. No part number wasn't listed, so I couldn't verify. I believe the correct varients are 03-04, 05-08. Fingers crossed.

i think you and i might have to order a couple of the plastic pieces for that years steering wheel. it looks like the 03-04 is slightly different then the newer ones

I browsed as many threads on the subject as I could find. I think we can reuse out 08 element wheel button trim pieces because the wheels we bought have the bottom spokes. The other wheels I saw which require different trim have no lower spokes.

yeah i was sitting in my car trying to figure out what was different and it didn't seem like there was anything. so now i just need to buy the radio control switch and cover, EX clockspool and an aftermarket radio controller

onaquest · 12-09-2012, 10:38 PM

Hope it's straight forward for u. What's a clockspool?

murso74 · 12-10-2012, 03:26 PM

clock spool is the rolled up ribbon cable inside your steering wheel that allows you to have audio/cruise control on the wheel. the LX's don't have enough wires in their clock spool to add plug and play audio controls so you gotta upgrade

onaquest & murso, the wheels you bought will work for '08s with no swapping of trim pieces. You were spot-on when you noted the different bottom spoke lengths. Your '08s have the longer lengths like the newer Pilot wheels.
