Would the CH1 accord be the same as the EK9 as they have the same steering wheel?

Remember the overall profile of the boss is important as well. The ATR might not be listed with the rest of the compatible cars due to the cowling or something.

So it might fit on the spline, but there's no guarantees you'll get the cowling back on.

Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 00&alt=web

Would that be right?
Or would it still be an issue with 4ws

Yes, or an EK Civic and I believe an S2000.
