Hello guys.
If I buy this steering wheel, will it be easy to install? Any ideas? Have you done that?

I have the same one in my car, sadly I was not the one to install it and I can't be of any assistance.

Can't be that hard. smile.gif

I am not sure, so I won't say YES and mislead you.

As the seller wrote to me, they are car specific.

If you like the steering wheel a lot(condition,color, etc.) and the price is good you can try and search for a hub that will fit the Celica.
Maybe even sell the S14 hub and get some money back.

Whatever you do, don't get an eBay hub. I got a steering wheel from eBay and while the wheel itself is awesome, the hub is a piece of crap. The steering wheel wiggles around before tightening down the shaft nut. It shouldn't be like that. I can hear the steel splines eating through the cast aluminum from the hub.

Anywho, get a good hub. They go for less than or around $100.

P.S. It's quite easy to install. You need a Torx T-30 bit, a phillips head screwdriver and a 19mm socket and ratchet. A steering wheel puller is a good idea but isn't necessary. Make sure you wiggle your steering wheel side to side like you're trying to bend it. Leave the shaft nut on but backed out most of the way.
