JDM Prius Steering Wheel

If you were contemplating a response before I stepped to the plate. I will politely concede my position on the winner's podium to the true winner.

 

Yep, guilty as charged.

 

LOL. LOL hahahhahaa.

 

All the money a save from gas goes right back into the car with all these custom upgrades, tats what we get for being car enthusiasts. My next upgrade is coming, I ordered the JDM engine room cover, possibly next week.

 

Okay all about "SAFETY". A better handling on steering control. Ummm what @Burna J said earlier... yeaaah

really stupid question... just bought a prius and this steering wheel based on your all recommendation -- what's the easiest way to access the battery?

 

Just got my full leather with red stiches from yahoo.jp



And 45 min later... installed!

 

Dayum... Steering wheel end up pretty Strait?

 

That was quick. Looks good.

 

My steering wheel was slightly to the left after my alignment and I figured to get the new wheel on before I took it back for them to fix. I was able to get it as straight as it originally was.

 

Do I need to use a steering wheel puller? What size is the nut that holds the wheel?

Thanks in advance

 

19mm if i remember correctly. I just tapped around the steering wheel and pulled

 

Thank you!

 

Those of u that had the issue with the wheel not exactly strait when driving strait all u needed was a tie rod adjustment? When i put mine on last night i drove this morning and noticed driving strait the steering wheel was to the left a little. So i just took everything off and pulled the wheel off to go to the next setting to the right. Now its a little off to the right but not as bad as it was to the left. So i need to go to alignment shop and adjust tie rods u think?



UPDATE: 8/8/15 Front alignment corrected it. Looks better now with the real CF button covers on the wheel.

 

Yeah, get it adjusted and you'll be set.

 

Hi All,

I've been reading the posts in this thread and am contemplating getting an aftermarket steering wheel. Lots of great info! Based on this quoted post, it seems that the MIT wheels are lighter and the leather is harder than the JDM wheels. What about the quality of the REAL brand, like this?

Is the SPORT GRIP the same as the GUN GRIP? And, what is the average import duty fee for something like this?

 

I'm selling my Silkblaze Sport Steering wheel from Japan - blue stitching. PM if interested. For Sale - Silk blaze Leather Sport Steering Wheel w/ Blue Stitching | PriusChat

 

is this genuine or aftermarket? is there grip at the back of the steering wheel?
