<p>Here is a small project that I have recently undertaken: modifying the steering wheel from a Honda Civic X to function with a PC and Asetek QR.</p>
<p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/snmNEJH.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/snmNEJH.jpeg" /></p>
<p>Initially, I disassembled it to modify the buttons. However, upon disassembly, I realized that reworking the PCB controlling the buttons wouldn't be feasible.</p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/MNa3eM7.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/MNa3eM7.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/475o6O2.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/475o6O2.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p>Thus, I opted to create a new one, intending to control the wheel via an Arduino board. After crafting the new board and integrating new buttons, I found myself confronted with a multitude of wires from each side, each button requiring two wires.</p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/HqZMOtj.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/HqZMOtj.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p>With the wiring sorted, I proceeded to 3D scan the wheel to seamlessly integrate paddle shifters into the back.</p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/YTXK9eL.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/YTXK9eL.jpeg" width="658" height="1259" /></p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/vk4kfrm.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/vk4kfrm.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p>Following this, I contemplated various methods to incorporate the Asetek QR. Ultimately, I decided to cut off the back end, drill a few holes, and affix the Asetek adapter into the wheel.</p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/A3Z6Ibw.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/A3Z6Ibw.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/X5so3jY.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/X5so3jY.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/FzMKxRZ.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/FzMKxRZ.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p>The subsequent steps involved the Arduino setup and finalizing the wiring, bringing me to a functional wheel albeit with a somewhat messy appearance.</p>
<p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/ktuLzSp.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/ktuLzSp.jpeg" /></p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/Gh1YbxJ.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/Gh1YbxJ.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p><img class="shrinkToFit" src="https://i.imgur.com/kD58rwz.jpeg" alt="https://i.imgur.com/kD58rwz.jpeg" width="944" height="1259" /></p>
<p> </p>
<p>The project, while functional, left the wheel with an aesthetically untidy appearance. To address this, I once again 3D scanned it, designed a cover, and enveloped it with foam before wrapping it in Alcantara for a polished finish.</p>
