I wanna see that steering wheel.

Here it is installed....

Install was simple. I only ran into one minor issue removing the old wheel.

The puller I bought did not have the correct bolts.

The steering wheel internals are aluminum so I just tapped to the thread pattern of the bolts that came with the puller.

nice shift ****!!!! Did you run into any airbag issues??? I'm worried about it popping out into my face...that'd suck.

I was a little worried about the airbag.

Not that it was going to deploy, I disconnected the battery about an 1/2 hour before I started....

Just last time I disconnected the battery (to replace the terminals) my airbag light was flashing a "5-2" code for several weeks before it (for lack of a better explination) fixed itself. This time the airbag system did not have an issue.

I do like the shift **** also. I got it from here http://www.thehotrodgirl.com/

I actually used heavy-duty epoxy to attach it to the tri-ax. Its never comming off... haha

But the cool thing about it is that it never heats up and its totally visible when you are looking for it and its great (over stock) if you have big hands.

that steering wheel looks the same as mine, i have the stock one?

Yeah. I dunno. My stock one was just a molded plastic/foam thing and was worn to a nub in one area.

I think this is probably what you have just overstuffed...
