is it possible to put on a 91,92 steering wheel ona 88 camaro? how much modification would this involve? thanks for your help!

 

Well the '91-'92 wheel should have an airbag, right? Wouldn't that be a nightmare to retrofit?

 

i should have mention i dont care about the air bag i dont want it to work ne ways!

 

i dont know how hard it is or how to do it but a few years ago i bought a 89 camaro from someone and they had the 91-92 steering wheel in it but i dont know if the air bag worked

 

If you don't care about the airbag, I don't see why the steering wheel wouldn't work. BUtI'm not sure.

 

Just out of curiousity then, why use the '91-'92 wheel? You'd wind up with a big ol' non-functioning airbag, unless you're planning to use that area for something else. Radio controls (It'd be easier to get an '89 wheel, wouldn't it?), maybe an LCD? Hmm...

 

hmmm...the steering column on the 91-92 are different from all the other years. Like the 91-92 is longer cause of hte air bag system. When I put a grant steering wheel in my car I had to shave down the column part cause it kept rubbing againts the hub adapter. So it would go on...but the wheel might sit allite more farhter away from you. Also...why put a stock wheel when you could put an aftermarket one?

 

I wouldn't go aftermarket. Most aftermarket parts just look wrong on our cars.

I am still curious as to why swap wheels in the first place. Purely cosmetic?

 

yep, i just like the look of the 91, 92 wheel i dunno why! i dont really like aftermaket ones that much either so this was a middle of the road kind of thing.

 

Fair enough.

If you find one in a junk yard you might want to consider the whole colum though, just in case there are clearance issues. Just a thought.

 

Yeah right aftermarket wheels don't look right!!!!! Well i kinda like mine a whole bunch. Oh yeah i have a stock 92 wheels just hanging in my garage right now, but the airbag went to a guy in Canada. I'll sell ya my wheel, if you can get an airbag for it.

 

hey dude dont worry about probs. i recently did the same thing, on my 88. all i did was disable the airbag and the wheel fit just fine. i was tired of that big azz bus driver looking wheel.

Yours does look pretty good, but with your gauges you sort of have a retro look going there. Your wheel in front of my bone-stock dash would look awful.
