Anyone have one? I saw one yetsreday that I thought would look good in my car. I also the the stock one too. I was wondering if anyone has put one in and if so what kind. The one I was looking at was a Grant.

No, I want one but im not too sure about loosing the airbag. Actually i especially want one cuz i converted my auto gt-s to manual a while back and now i have useless shift buttons on my wheel.

Yea thats a good idea. Way back when i tried to have a local stero shop make them control the radio volume. They said they couldnt do it. I think they just didnt want to. haha

They were probably thinkin "how lazy can this guy be that he cant reach over to increase or decrease the volume of the stereo in HIS car"... "shiat, he might be too lazy to go the ATM and pay us".

Here's mine:

It has red stitching on it, for some reason the camera didn't pick it up.

Looks nice, Mine would have been by Grant, but I didn't buy it because Auto Zone didn't have the mounting Kit for it because of the Air Bag. Any idea what to do?

keep the stock with the airbag! it might save your life one day! or go for TRD if you can afford it

:werd: That's the reason I never went with an aftermarket wheel.

If you cant afford the TRD one. You can think about the JDM one which only cost $360.00 Plus shipping from us. And they are available in red, white and silver. Silver will be your best choice to suit your exterior. Here is the picture of the white one.
