Yeah I know... there's some song and dance about the Trip A Trip B... Turn the car off... Turn it back on... Jerk yourself off, spugg on the windshield, listen to a CD on MAX volume, then smoke a joint...

But I just don't have the patience for all that!

I would rather just Fast Forward to the Joint and call it a day!

Doesn't sound too hard!

Thanks!

I know you don't care but I have to say that the stock wheel is probably one of the nicer ones on any car I have ever seen. If you had an interior shop wrap it in leather it would be really sweet IMO.

I know it's a damn fine steering wheel... But I just want something different... Believe you, me... There will not just be some piece of junk Steering Wheel on this car... It will be top o the line!

I find it funny you'll install a steering wheel but not clear your M\R light. To each his own I guess.

Maybe I'm weird (well, I am), but the stock steering wheel looks obscene to me... The whole center part just kinda reminds me of a woman's crotch... I'd rather have the real thing

You French Pimp...

What doesn't remind you of a Woman's Crotch?

forpinks · 03-12-2007, 02:38 AM

you can get one from a Celica GT-S... it should look awesome with airbags...

AlanSRT4 · 03-12-2007, 11:09 AM

You just need to put a proper resistor in line and that will keep the light from coming on.

Nutzoids · 03-12-2007, 11:24 AM

What if I change it with another Toyota Steering Wheel?

Are they all the same? can I take one off the Tundra or the MRS?

Or will only certain Steering Wheels fit on Certain cars?

That will solve the whole AirBag issue right?

eTiMaGo · 03-12-2007, 11:28 AM

That's quite an interesting question...

I know there's a TRD steering wheel which can be put on our car, and has an airbag, but as wheels from other cars, no idea.

Just make sure the Toyota steering wheel with airbag you install has 2nd gen airbags... then it should have the same harness... but you might need a converter if you use a 2002 or older year steering wheel...

I'll find out at work tomorrow- I've actually been thinking of the same thing- I just want one that comes out further from the column, seeing that the Yaris doesn't have tilt/telescope, and that would make a HUGE difference in comfort for me. As of right now, my knees are up around my damn shoulders to keep a good position on the wheel (I have really long legs). I look like a friggin' circus elephant riding a tricycle.
