Like the title says - I have the steering wheel and the covers around the steering column off today until 6pm CST or so. If anyone needs pics of anything or a how-to on the install of a new steering wheel - now's the time to ask. I got my nifty new Sony Cybershot and need excuses to use it
 BTW - Changing out for a Rav4 3 spoke with center peice that it's texture matches out interior - super nice courtesy of Zero

It's totally all about the ergonomic kung-fu thumb rest action that has me wanting one. I've wanted one for a long time actually, since shortly after I got my Celica and even knew I COULD replace the steering wheel!
Edit: sorry if that's yet another detriment to your FS thread. The benefit to buying your 4-spoke it that it's a flawless mint original equipment for our particular car, and for collector purposes, if someone were to ever try to keep a 6th gen to be a collector's item (I think 25 years is the actual technical law for a collector's car), that 4 spoke is definitely a VERY nice find!

Yup - you got it. That truely is the biggest benifit. IDC if noone buys the wheel - I'll just get you to ebay it for me [shameless veiled request LOL] the other thing I thought about is someone is gonna need an airbag before too long - with our cars being the age they are the airbags will be out of their warranty period soon [Not sure if ours throws a cel automatically like some cars do] and this one's airbag has never been hooked up. That alone makes it worth what I'm asking for it. Hey! Where are those guys who pay top dollar for airbags now when I need them?
