Default 2001-2003 RX300 air bag would fit my pre-2000 Aristo?

Hey guys,

Do you know if the airbag from 2001-2003 RX300 would fit my 2000 (or older) steering wheel? The reason I am asking is because there's one for auction on Yahoo Singapore and it's got that cool chrome Lexus logo in the middle but the seller told me he's not sure if it would fit a 2000 Aristo, since he originally bought it for his own 2000 Harrier and turns out it doesn't fit.

Can you guys help me?

Here's a couple of pics:

i think the 2001+ RX air bag will only fit the 2001+ GS or Aristo steering wheel.

The shape of the pre-2001 Aristo airbag is the same as the pre 2001 RX or GS.

Probably you can exchange with Jtanoyo1 ... he has a 99/00 Toyota airbag, while you have a 98 Lexus airbag ...

yup, you will need the air bag and then also a new steering wheel

when i said fit, i was referring to the airbag plug. that's the biggest problem
