steering wheel Options

[MisterRay]

i know... this topic must have been milked dry by now (but my searches are coming up with nothing)

has any1 got any TOYOTA steering wheels installed other than the 6gc, 7gc and mr2 ones? eg the tsport corolla, verso, auris or even (god knows why) the prius 1 lol

im pretty sure they are all mix and match but are steering controls etc compatiable?

and before any smartarses say "we all have toyota steering wheels..." read the second sentence lol pics please!


on a side note... i need a 7gc to 6gc airbag adapter. some1 take my money.

Here we go, pictures to help explain what I'm talking about. First, we have an IS300 clockspring on the left and 7th gen Celica clockspring on the right- notice the different size plugs on the top of the clockspring. That's for the plug inside the steering wheel for the horn and cruise control stalk.




Here is a picture comparing the plugs of a 6th gen Celica clip and 7th gen Celica clip.




Here's a picture of the IS300 clockspring plugging into the 7th gen Celica airbag.




So basically, the 7th gen cruise control stalk/horn will not plug into the 6th gen Celica/IS300 clockspring. You need to unpin the wires from the 7th gen plug and put them in the 6th gen plug so you can have cruise control and a horn. It's not hard at all.

The cruise control stalk needs to have some wires changed before it'll work in the 6th gen. That's covered in the steering wheel swap thread though. Or you can simply use your old cruise control stalk in the new wheel, which will look a little weird but will work.



Let me know if I need to clarify anything. I know that this is difficult to understand when you're reading what needs to be done, but once you are actually doing it and you see everything, it's not so bad.
