Grant steering wheel
I bought this wheel over a year ago and finally got around to installing it on saturday. Thanks to wkdivr for giving me a hand and supplying the steering wheel puller. It was actually really easy to install and turned out pretty nice. I still have mixed feelings on it though, i reallly like the look of it, but the factory wheel is leather wrapped which i really like where this one is not. All buttons and horn and air bag still function. Oh, and i also had some help from my little man wearing Camo!

I like the "pebbled" grips, but the bottom of the wheel w/. that flat racecar look isn't my cup of tea. I also don't like the logo where it's at, I prefer the old style Grant wheel (pre-airbag) w/. logo right in the center not on the bottom. Roll w/. the changes tho. No offense. I do like some things bout your new wheel just not everything. Long as it satisfies your needs.
I do have a Q: You said the factory 1 is leather, while the Grant isn't. Couldn't ya just trim it in leather? It looks like ya could just trim around buttons & those grips, but IDK. Can it be done?

i also agree on the logo placement. i would rather not have their logo on it at all truthfully.

LOL its funny you mention that Julien! YES i was nervous, but i was actually frightened afterwards when i realized we only disconnected the pcm ground from the battery but forgot to disconnect the auxillary ground which means we did the entire job with full power to the air bag!!!!!!!
