Did you buy this from Van? Im not exactly sure if it will work but Im pretty sure you cannot have a functioning airbag since it is a dual stage. If you have it on you, you might as well try it and let us know if it works.

Yeah the wheel should go on fine, but the airbag won't work so far as I know.

I got gs430 wheel...don't have pics of it on and not going to snap pics now since it's too damn cold...but it should work. you'd need a single stage airbag. i got mine from R&J...and I think it came off an RX 300/330 not sure. Wired up for plug and playa nd took me 10 mins to install

I installed a 2001 GS 300 wood w/ e-shift~~ it first perfectly. Summary of it is just disconnect battery, yank old wheel off, push old wheel on. Ta DA!

You have to swap old cruise into the new one, the e-shift only looks cool, horn will work without mod, airbag wouldn't work if it is 2 stage- i saw a thread on clublexus some custom fab-ed something (sounds dangerous)- but i have a single stage rx one ~ Still need to find a discontinued harness adaptor for it to be hooked up. Don't want to cut the wires to custom fab anything, sounds dangerous to me.

Kaydee how did you hook your airbag up ?
