came with Camaro Horn button, billet alum spacer. hub adapter. and hub cover.. $50 shipped.
the only thing was, the wheel did not have a box...shucks..
this set up, places the grant wheel, in the same place, as the stock airbag wheel..(not to tall..not to short)

For $50 that is a great deal. I personally think that there is much better looking steering wheel styles out there (much more money- of course), but for the money, You got a nice wheel.

Post installed pics!

I'm not a fan of aftermarket steering wheels, but that is a very nice looking wheel for a Grant -- like you said, most of the ones I see are the cheap "Hecho en Mexico" ones. The red accents should compliment your red interior nicely, and the 1st gen script on the horn button is a classy touch.

saw this wheel 2 years ago, never wanted to spend $100 for just the wheel.

the had a small add, with wheels without boxes, and this wheel was one.
also let me pick out all the Horn/install Kit. to go with it! smoken deal!

they do make some good looking wheels..never been into to flashy.
like the new 2012 ZL1 camaro steering wheel..when i get mine. thats the first thing to Go!!!

will do the install soon. still doing the side bars (rollbar) and more
