    Being an acclaim, I'm assuming it has a drivers airbag? legally you can not replace it with an aftermarket steering wheel, just thought I'd point it out incase you were unaware..

    You are voiding one of the main safety features of the car, airbags save lives pretty damn stupid to remove them in my opinion

    cheers,
    it doesnt look as stupid as i thought it would coz the black rear seat doesnt look to bad with the red seats.
    but a different rear seat will look a whole let better!
