First post on these forums so hope get this all correct....

 

I have a 96 J-Spec Supra and it has as stock a four spoke airbag steering wheel, I am looking to get rid of this grandad Camry spec wheel in favor of an Original Kouki 98-02 airbag equipped 3 spoke steering wheel. What I am trying to work out is will this fit straight on with no need for major mods to get it to fit? Does the later model wheel have the same sprocket fitment as the 96 car?

 

Also how hard is it to remove the factory 4 spoke wheel and airbag?

 

Any input or help on this one would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks Phil

Don't know about the new wheel but the old one is easy to remove just make sure you disconnect the battery so it doesn't blow up in your face :D

Easy to remove is great (Battery will be disconnected so I can save face), is it just a screw on each side of the wheel under the plastic tabs to get the airbag off and then the standard big nut behind the airbag to get the wheel off.

 

The big thing I am trying to confirm, is are the sprocket fitments the same on a 96 as on a 98-02?

 

Is there one type of boss kit to fit all years of Supra or do they change with the face lift model and as the years go on?
