Hey, I'm going to get this steering wheel:
 It's off a 7th Gen Celi. My question is if I can fix the faded part of the steering wheel. The guy told me some of the dye came off the bottom and a little from the top. Do I re-dye the steering wheel? How would I go about doing this? And would it look brand new, like factory? Thanks. --------------------  |

er... sorry for reviving this thread.. but i just wanted to clear something up...
if i get a 98/99 steering wheel, i will need to find a 98/99 driver side airbag. then these 2 will fit + plug in perfectly and with oem fitment. am i correct in saying that? also, say i get a 7gc steering wheel... even though the harness isn't exact... can't i pop out all the pins and connect each wire to the correct place? or am i missing something here? -------------------- |

[right][snapback]330167[/snapback][/right] We have revived this point over and over on these forums. A guy at a junkyard told me he has built up 14 celicas and he switches to the newer steering wheels meaning 98-99 from a celica. They plug in. Do they work????? i don't know. We know for a fact that the 7th gen is different due to extra wires. Those wires might have something to do with the side airbags. Any junkyard online can get you a 98-99 wheel for about 100 bucks or less. Its the airbag thats expensive and usually sold in pairs(diver/passenger). My advice is to stick with the 98-99 wheel and find a airbag for it. |
