Default New BOSS Steering Wheel

Just got my BOSS 302 steering wheel today. Don't have my car back from the body shop, so I don't really want to mess with it yet. I was just wondering whether the plastic spoke covers come off like they did on the 05-09's.

Nice! You'll really love the feel of that steering wheel. And yes, I believe the plastic spoke covers can be removed, check out this video, around the 2:15 mark. It shows the covers being removed from the premium steering wheel, so I'm sure the same is true about the Boss steering wheel. And it also shows how how to remove and install the steering wheel, so 2 for 1 .

Does the BOSS302 not come with SYNC? That steering wheel in the pic is missing the buttons for the SYNC features.

Is this compatible for 05-09 models? I love the Boss steering wheel but feel there would be fitment and or wiring issues. Where did you buy yours from??

Says that his is a 2006 so apparently it will just bolt up. However, I don't think the buttons would work since its a different stereo system maybe not cruise control either.

The wires have to be spliced to the 05-09 wire harness to use the cruise control. The horn is basically plug and play. I'll post a link when later.

I can't wait till I get my car back, so I can get this done and post pics.

GT500 Steering wheel part # AR3Z-3600-AA

Either one would be a great choice. I know Torch Vert is running the 2010+ GT500 wheel.
