      If your CQ are '90/'91 it may not be a straight swap - if it has the older 4 spoke airbag wheel to start with you may have to swap cowls and muck around with the indicator mechanism.

          By 'cowl' (cowling?) I mean the plastic cover behind the steering wheel that the indicator stalks come out of.
          The thread link below has pictures of the later covers (which make the 3 spoke airbag wheel a straight swap) and the earlier one which would need to e changed.


          With an earlier original wheel you may also need to alter the mechanism which cancels the indicator to make it work.. See the links earlier in this thread. (post #13)
          I don't think there would be any issues with the wiring.
