I have a 2006 Honda Civic. I read that it sits too far off the steering wheel to have airbag theft protection. Is this the case?

Not in my opinion, but I have a 2011 Chevy Silverado, so I can't say how our airbag compartments compare to each other. The unit does feel as though there's some "give" when you install it. In other words, when I extend the club arm out while installing it, it doesn't feel like it's a super tight fit. It's not going to come off or anything, but I can't see how someone could get in there and work around the bars to remove an airbag, but I suppose if someone were super motivated, and had all kinds of time, anything is possible. As far as a 'slash and grab', I think this unit would definitely protect you. You do need to turn your wheels all the way to the right before turning off your engine to facilitate proper installation.

Don't know about your specific make/model, but you should definitely remove when driving at highway speeds. For a low speed local trip, its probably ok to keep it on.

I would imagine yes IF you are tracing through a fuse contact as that is how it ties in BUT I AM NOT AN EXPERT BUT AM CONCERNED THAT ANY TIME YOU ARE PLAYING WITH AIRBAG CIRCUITS YOU CAN ACCIDENTALLY DEPLOY THE BAG. I do not know if this is a real fear, but I would double check with someone who knows whether this is a genuine concern. My rule is be very careful with airbags.

Doesn't fit my steering wheel great on my civic 2013. I added some memory foam in between and helps in fit a little better. I'm not sure about the accord.

It should fit. My mom has a tracker and I believe the steering wheel is about the same size as my civic. Just so you know, it won't be a snug fit, the steering wheel is just a tad bit smaller than the cover. I don't mind it, in fact I love this thing, it looks and feels great.

These covers slide over the back of the seat and stretch over the bottom or seat portion. If by side airbags you mean air bags that are being installed in the side of car seats, then the answer is definitely no. If you mean airbags for side impact protection that are installed in the door or above the side windows, then I would say yes because the seat cover does not directly affect airbag deployment.

I don't own the Honda any more....got a Kia Sedona....easier for me, but yes, I think it will... When you unzip the seat cover on the drivers side, there are pre- drilled holes in the support of the seat... you just have to cut a SMALL "x" in the fabric for the screws to go in.... The armrest was a Godsend....gave the driver and the passenger a place to rest their arm.....it really was quite easy.... Good luck....

No, the windshield is too tall. I tried this in a Civic and Fit and it just wasn't the right dimensions for either.

Yes- BUT!! I had a 2012 Honda Civic, and it fits VERY snugly in the center console cup holder. Doing this has caused a few minor marks on the paint so be warned.

Not sure what you would do about the airbag. Check out the grant website and see what they have for an adapter kit for your vehicle

I have the original Club and this twin hook club. The original club [which is easily defeated by sawing thru the steering wheel] I use on 1991 Ford Taurus SHO it fits fine you should turn the steering wheel far to the right and adjust it all the way down if it's an adjustable wheel, before applying the club. The twin hook club won't work on my 2005 Acura NSX or my 2008 Honda Civic Si because of the position of the steering wheel, the steering wheel itself and the relation ship of the windshield to the steering wheel. The NSX and the Civic's windshields are extremely "raked". I do think if this twin hook fits properly on your car, it should work because your kid unlike a car thief won't want to damage the car while trying to use it without permission. Also I think on you tube there was a guy who demonstrates how to pick this or the other model's lock. In conclusion if this unit fits properly and used properly and your kid doesn't want to damage the car trying to use it without permission or can pick locks it should work. Dan

I use in the back seat since my front seat automatically moves to the passenger settings when the car starts. I don't think it would be a problem if the passenger airbag was shut off. We were extremely happy with the quality and how easy it is to change from one car to another. Our Miss Harley loves it!

I have a 2012 Civic and I can open and close my trunk with the rack installed as well as with my bike on the rack. The bottom strap, for me, goes on the bottom of the trunk so it does not deter opening and closing!

Depends where the car seat is located. I drive a Corolla and find having the rear-facing seat behind me is pretty snug. I'm 5'4" and I sit fairly close to the steering wheel with the Chaperone behind me these days. When the seat was in the middle spot, there was much more space for the driver.

I use my cable lock and thread it through the top handle and rear strap of the Trunk Bag and then under my seat to keep my bag and seat from being removed. The bag itself fits fairly snuggly on the rack, so it isn't something that a thief can remove quickly in any event.

Yes, that is where I have mine. Seatbelt slides through the side, over the base of the seat (under cushion) and out the other side to "click" belt closed securely. I have a 2013 Malibu and it fits fine in the seat. As for the airbag, that is a good call out. My car has a safety measure where the airbag is off unless there is greater than 100 pounds in the seat.

It seems to be the standard key for Honda's of that type. I have a 2007 Honda Fit & I think it's the same for a Civic.
