Bill560 Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Anyone swap out there steering wheel for a better looking model and if so which? I like the look of the LS wheel but it don't look close enough for a fit! Maybe a newer model ES? Same question applies to the front seats! 1995 ES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviej Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 steering wheel swaps are usually avoided as well as the air bags are not interchangable. I did read of one thread where they did swap wheels but opted to deactivate/omit the airbag. (poor decision in my opinion). steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the looks of the wooden type wheels however! Did the Es in 95 come with a wooden type wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually they were started in 1999 as a added option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviej Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Bill, All hope is not lost. Check out this company as I have heard good things about them from several members. They can incorporate wood into your current wheel. American-Stitches steviej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American-Stitches steviej Yeah I had them do mine and the good thing is that they had my steering wheel in stock and made it while I keep using my car. Then they sent it to me after they finish and I sent them my old wheel back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
