Cool Steering wheel

I agree 100%!!! Worth every penny to upgrade to the wood. It's a great feel when driving the GS. I got mine over 6 years ago, at a cost of $350 plus $200 for the upgraded 2001 S-1 airbag, both from e-bay and would never get another car without a wood wheel. Some people just are too cheap to spend a few 100 bucks for something that will give you years and years of joy. Not to mention, it looks soo much better!!! I guess people want to pay "Ford Pinto" parts prices to put into their Lexus??? hahahaaaa, Oh well...

I'm thinking of grabbing an RX 300 steering wheel out of a junkyard by me. The guy quoted me at $60 over the phone, I'm sure I can get him down. I want a half wood half leather wheel like the cadillac I used to drive had. Seriously a nice steering wheel goes a long way, mine is chewed to hell. Just not sure about the electronics at the moment.
