Steering Wheel Mod

Ok I have never liked the steering wheel on our 4th gen f-bodies. I always wanted to change mine for a nice aftermarket wheel. The steering wheel I really like are the ones from www.billetspecialties.com but they are pricey. Any pics,suggestions would be appreciated also is there a link to show how to install a aftermarket wheel.

In my opinion I think those billet wheels are just TOO old school/flashy for our interiors. Those really look the best in older cars. But hey that's just me.

i think afterthoughts auto has some cool little bowtie decals to somewhat dress up the steering wheel. i actually like how the stock one looks as well.

OOOHH Yeah ! ! I just love that old 1996 Caprice steering wheel . And that wonderful 1980's retro turn signal stalk .
And don't forget that marvelously aerodynamic hump in the passenger side floor well . Man ,,, those engineer's at GM are some really talented and competent employee's . And that fantastic headlight switch that doesn't give you the option of turning them off when you want. I could go on and on but I think I'll just save some space for you to give us your favorite General Motors technological advances .
