Default Steering Wheel

Does anybody know where and how much it costs to change your steering wheel? I'm looking for a wheel with wood grain on it? (kind of like the GS series)

Do all the buttons on the steering wheel still work if you change it?

Wow, I dont think that one has been tried here before... Might be cool if it matched the stock wood grain, but I dont think Lexus makes one that does.

Sorry to hijack, but has anyone had their steering wheel leather re-upholstered? I let my friend drive my car, and their shorts had a zipper on it that made a bad cut on the bottom. He's willing to pay for it.

Ask your Lexus service advisor. They most likely have a leather upholstery shop the refer these repairs to...yours would not be the first leather covered wheel needig repair.

Check with your Lexus parts department for wheel and button compatability with ES350 and the GS models. The ES should be woodgrain compatible as they appear to be the same. Hope this helps...let us know as I am sure there are others who would consider this swap.
