Why would you change your steering wheel anyway dude? You do know its gonna void not only your warranty but also your insurance because your removing one of the safety systems of the car, visa vie the Air Bag. Trust me I know from personal experience an Air Bag is something you want in a car. Ill show ya why look below.

I survived that wreck because of the Air Bag had it not have been there I would not be alive today.

Actually the spoiler came off and was outside the car, they just tossed it in after the tow. Ok cant find my original post so heres the story. I bought that car at the end of September 2004 and 94 Olds Acheiva S had 67,000 original miles payed 3800 for it. Was going to school and working full time. So sleep was a rare thing, went fine for a month or so then on Nov. 10th a wednesday of all days I fell asleep at the wheel and swerved into oncoming traffic on a 2 lane highway. I ended up hitting a Semi Truck head on and woke up upside down in a ditch on the other side of the road. Crawled out of the car with a broken leg, least I thought it was, and layed down and waited to die basically. Passed out and woke up a week later in ICU with a ruptured spleen and my left leg busted in 2 places, above my knee and at my hip joint. The X-ray pics are on my Myspace page if your interested. I have a plate 2 cables a rod and 12 metal screws in my leg.
