Steering Wheel and Shift Knob

I have the basic 2001 CL .. w/o the navigation system. I would really like to get a new, classier looking steering wheel and shift knob.

Is there a way to change this? Has anyone done this?

Suggestions/comments are greatly appreciated!

Shift knobs are easy for the new CL's. Any manual trans. shifter should fit. over at www.autocarparts.com Tim, the owner, has a couple really nice knobs. I think the Burl wood one looked really nice. I believe he also had a wheel that would fit...but I cannot be sure about this one.

Thanks for that link Tw1112. Autoparts.com has over 50 steering wheels for the 3.2 CL ranging between $100 to $450.

Has anyone upgraded their steering wheel? Any suggestions on one that might look best?

Thanks

Yeah the current one should have an airbag

You could always email Tim because he is very good at answering questions about specific products that he lists. Or actually you can click on the listings and see a picture of the actual wheel. That should give you an idea of what it would look like.
