I put a new Grant on mine. No problems at all. It's about a 30 minute job at most. Just follow the directions and you'll be fine.

put this one in mine:



real simple, all you need is a steering wheel puller, and maybe some wire stripers and connectors depending upon how the horn is set up with the one you get.

I put a Grant GT wheel on mine, and like the other guys said, it is a real easy job. Make sure that you get a wheel adapter kit, if there is one... I had to get one for my Grant wheel for it to fit on the column. Here are some pictures of mine:

It adds a nice custom appearance to the interior of the car.
