thanks, it would look great you just might have to alter the dash with some colors to match it that way it looks more factor but it would work.

Thanks! I used the Grant 3196 installation kit. I could use an air bag however what you see on the steering wheel currently is just the cover theirs no air bag. i could purchase one for $250 but i'm good without it i don't street race plus its a weekend car not daily driver. i can tell you this that steering wheel feels good. I need the cage that houses the air bag so i can get the horn to work properly.

I'm guessing it can be done but I would have to get a steering column with the stereo controls function on it and mess around with it to see what pin out I would have to jump or rearrange to make it work.

I finally got my car back, and installed the wheel last night. It was late, so no daytime pics yet, but I did snap these.
The car needs to be cleaned, and the airbag needs some tlc, but I like it a lot. It felt great driving home last night.

Picked up a shaft from a 2010 express van over the weekend and also got a black stitched "leather" wheel and bag today from a Saturn something. I still need to get a 03-07 express van bag for the single stage swap. Also I need to get some button delete covers. It will prob be a while for me to find time to swap it all. Cant wait I propped a 3rd gen "Camaro" Wheel cap emblem over the saturn logo. Looks good, Ill have to mod it in

That would be awesome. I would love to see a pic of it on a 4th gen. I found another 3 spoke with paddles on it. Was thinking about grabbing the paddles off of it and using them for nitrous controls. Could make the top left one purge and the right one spray. Could use the rears to open or close the cutouts

It's plenty thick, and the feel is amazing. I like the flat bottom and the finger grips they added. The nice thing, is the radio controls will go right back in, and the airbag is still functional.
