Steering Wheel Swap

Alright, first off I searched for steering wheel and had 500 results.. so I'm going to just ask my quick questions and you can flame me if you want

I don't really care for the 4 spoke steering wheel; it honestly <to me> looks like a granny steering wheel

So..

I've read the A-Spec steering wheel is different; but have never seen it. Does anyone have a pic of it?

Or:

Will a 2007 3-Spoke steering wheel swap into an 04-06 TL?


Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

A thread a couple weeks back discussed putting an 07 TL-S wheel assembly in an 04-06 model at least for the paddle shifters. Probably would be very expensive and you'd probably end up with a bunch of useless buttons on the wheel since they went with more of a TSX/RL configuration.

I hope somebody with a lot of time and money goes for it because the paddle shifter mod would be the shiznit.

I asked the same thing a little while ago. Here's the thread.


Cliff notes version and quick answer about swapping with a 07 wheel is :

NO.

I think the only difference between the stock 04-06 wheel and the a-spec is that the a-spec is a bit thicker with cf inserts. I may be wrong though. It's still a 4 spoke wheel.

There is a thread for the CF steering wheel with pics. The aspec steering wheel is thicker and has silver inserts. The 07 3 spoke would probably fit but you would then have to buy and airbag which is big $$$, and you would also have to figure out what to so with the MID buttons on the 07 wheel. I personally dont like the 4 spoke wheel either but i will just have to live with it and maybe get the CF wheel.
