Default New steering wheel combo!

I got a steering wheel from a 00+ Celica GT(S) on E-bay and a 98 Supra steering wheel cover from SupraCoup3, who I might say is a great guy to deal with. I had to cut/shave part of the original cruise control lever from my SC steering wheel in order to make it fit in the Celica wheel.
Does anybody know if I have to get a Supra specific airbag module (or whatever its called) in order to make the airbag work, or can i get one from a Celica or something else, I just know that it has to be stage 1?Here are the pics:

Looks like a good combo, now you need to spray dye the Ebrake/boot to match.
Maybe some black floormats too,eh?
I like how the diameter is large enough to see the guages, many aftermarket wheels don't allow that.

yeah, it's slightly smaller. It seems to be a better size for more of a sports car. Let the guys with the LS have the truck-sized wheel





glad it worked out for you man
