Possible Steering wheel Change

Recommended Posts

Hi all

 

I am considering changing the steering wheel to something a bit more modern but OEM Toyota or Lexus.However I have a fair idea of what I am after.

 

My question to you is who can advise out of what models I would get a nice meaty steering wheel, you know the kind, small centred, thick grip position and a flatish bottom - queue the innuendos!

 

Thanks

I removed this from my jdm supra few years ago n put back oem one.

 

Tried to sell it but no one interest.

 

Made a very light scratch by alley key when i remove it.

 

Sell it very cheap, with hub that can be used for other wheel i believe

The issue with the newer wheels is the designs are too modern, and don't go well with the Supra dash.

Its more the physical shape and feel I want. I was actually considering getting the sides trimmed in alcantara. Theres not too much standard about my car now so I thought it would be a nice addition.

It's just wires. Anything can be sorted out with wires...and other electrickery bits.

 

You know I know all about that lol It's the mounting of the actual cruise control unit and lever though, that's the tricky bit. I might have a look at Sheefas and see if it can be done. I remember years ago that someone retro fitted the cruise control to a TRD steering wheel, Sharpie I think it was.

Some of the 3 spoke gen 7 Celica and IS200 wheels (the same as the 3 spoke facelift Supra wheel) come with a cruise stalk attached, pretty sure it's plug and play as it's the same cruise stalk as the UK spec Supras.
