Air Bag

Post by eThix »

Ok, my Steering wheel has an Air Bag, but the grip is getting really worn and will probably brake or crack soon...
i know i can't just change my steering wheel but i would like to have a nice looking wheel.
So what can i do about getting a new steering wheel? does it HAVE to have an airbag again?

I have an airbag wheel in perfect condition if you just want to replace the one you have. Only problem is it may not be the same wheel as the one you have (there were several different ones)

      Along this line maybe you could just get the rim recovered. There would be someone around Brisbane that would be able to do this and may have the right tools and knowledge in house to remove your wheel and refit without setting off the airbag.
