2010 TSX steering wheel on 2007 TL

I've been wondering whether it'll be possible to fit a 2010 tsx steering onto a 2007 TL. It'll look pretty dope in my opinion, just looking for some of the experts on acurazine to plug there inputs in on this thread.

def not plug and play. you would need to rewire it. But they are so similar that I don't see why you would do it??


Id spend the money and get your current wheel rewrapped

Nah, dont screw around doing something that you dont even know if it works or not (chances are it wont) as the airbags are different and thats messing with stuff I wouldnt wanna mess with. Plus like already mentioned you would somehow have to rewire the buttons to work with your older TL. Lastly, the leathers are different between the two cars since the TSX wheel is a lot newer, they use a smoother leather, it wont match the 07 TL interior at all.

Here is the perfect solution for you, and you get a thicker wheel that feels incredible! That TSX wheel looks as skinny as the stock TL wheel.

Here is my thread for my custom wheel I had made as well as center console lid. Love driving my car all over again!

It would be far more trouble then its worth imo. And it wont match the aesthetics of the tl interior as its designed for a different car.

Hehe well thank you all for your inputs. Idk why I like the tsx steering wheel so much. How much would it cost to get my original steering rewraped? Or how much would a new one cost?

Check out the link JTS posted. He and I, and a few others, had Dallas Custom Wheels re-wrap OEM steering wheels. Cost is a bit steep at $420 with the options we chose, but its definitely worth it IMO.

Damn.. That's hard money for a kid like me still trying to pay off his tl. I rather worry about fixing my spindle and keep maintenancing my car to feel like brand new before I try and make the comfort within my grips feel brand new :/ thanks for the input though, buddy.
