Soo I love my 91 Bird, but I hate the stock steering wheel. It's so thick and just uncomfortable. The one thing I really miss about my '88 Camaro was the wheel, it was nice. Would a wheel from a Camaro be able to take the place of the one i have now?? If so, what would I need to get it installed?

yes they will and you need the new steering wheel and a wheel puller

the same splines were used across quite a few gm vehicles, so fit should be ok. however, in case i'm remembering wrong, your 91's got an airbag and the 88 doesn't. If that's the case, you may not pass inspections due to the removal of mandatory safety equipment.
Well that's good to hear. Aww yeah there are ways to pass inspection. :-p

Did the same thing with my '91. The earlier steering wheel is a direct fit, just clip the horn wire on, match up the splines, tighten down the nut, and you're good to go. You will have to clip the yellow airbag wire to get the wheel on, but otherwise it's very straight forward.

I can't comment on anyone else, but I had to trim about 1/8" of material off the bottom of my early 'Bird wheel I put on my '91 'Bird to not have it rub on the column.Originally Posted by transamch

Here is a bad one. If you look close you can see I didn't get it quite level at the top.Originally Posted by transamch
