You will probably need to wire up a resistor to the airbag wires to fool the car into thinking the airbag is still there. I know that is what people do when they switch out seats.

In the past I remember changing the steering wheels in cars causes the Airbag Light, not disables everything. They may have tied everything together.

use a 2OHM resistor across both connectors that used to go to your air bag.

Makes sense but that will also work for the abs light and the loss of traction light

Those are being triggered by the car not seeing the airbag. Resistor SHOULD fix all those problems.

I'm using the Works Bell hub. It includes the resistor. I haven't had any problems with the airbag light since installation.

NRG's usually don't disable the airbag or come with the resistor. Did you get one or?

Installed Works Bell hub with two resistors today, no SRS airbag light but the slip and ABS lights are on and TRC/VSC buttons are non responsive. Any ideas? Is this maybe linked to the cruise control?

I doubt its linked to the cruise control. I've had my wheel installed for a month at least with the WB hub and resistors and I know for a fact my traction control is operational. Pics of your resistors? Did you get both connectors?
