Steering wheel

I think that the shop did a pretty good job overall. Nothing really to complain about.

thanks mate... just one of those things. At least they got alot of the dings out of the rear 1/4 while they were fixing it so I'm happy with that too. I need to find a how-to on replacing the steering wheel. I believe that I should be able to find something on 240sx.org... gotta look

Yep.. It all plugged right up...Airbag system did it's post and the light went out like normal. I'm not sure why people are posting about having to modify connectors. The hardest part of the whole thing was finding a hardware store that had the tamper proof torx bits. Took all of about 15 minutes to do the actual swap. It's a direct bolt application.

a 2-Way from Tomei. I also need to get my Potenzas mounted. Anyone have any hookups at a wheel/tire shop? I'm not thinking that it would cost very much to mount and balance em.
