I disagree. I like a steering wheel with a little meat on its bones. The stock ones from 82-89 looked REALLY bad, although the bird was kinda cool.

The 90-92 Camaro wheel was a nice one if ya ask me. It felt good and looked like a wheel that'd come in a much newer car. I someday hope to find a 90-92 Iroc/Z28 wheel...

The 90-92 RS wheels were not leather, where as the IROC/Z28 wheels were.

Check Ebay, they are listed there all the time. That's where I got mine. Everyonce in awhile you will find a leather one for sale, but they usually go for around 80-100. Problem with the leather ones, is you never really no the condition of the leather until you can see it in person.
