    Thanks for the detailed posting of all of your upgrades that you have made. It shows the dedication that you have put into your Prius. I'm working on a few changes on my own 2014 Prius, Package 3. So far I've put in a set of 2014 Toyota Corolla S Alloy wheels and tires which I'm very happy with. I have to thank all of the contributors that I've found on Priuschat - without their research and sharing of information I would have never been able to make any modifications without a lot of headaches.

    I'm working on more upgrades, tinting, audio system, and I'm thinking of upgrading the suspension and handling at some point. But right now I was looking for an OEM leather steering wheel. I see in your post that you upgraded yours to a carbon fiber JDM steering wheel. Would you still have the original one? Can I purchase it off you? I know I'm exactly 2 years too late. Let me know if you still have it.

    Thanks again for the chronicle of upgrades that have done on your car. It shows us what can be done with a lot of hard work.

    What an incredible build! I was super interested in the real CF steering wheel inserts and the mirror caps but havent been able to find an active link anywhere. Would you happen to know anyone who has them in stock? Thanks!

    SR Prius. I was able to track down CF Steering Wheel Inserts. ITs from CARiD.com. I'd double-checked for you with a chat session. Go to this link. Make sure to select the correct Prius model and the Steering Wheel configuration (left, right or both switches on wheel). When you have completed that selection the last is the finish. I believe its listed as "Black Carbon".

    Thank you so much @Peterlb !! I was worried these are merely just vinyl stickers? They don't seem to be the actual unit, but rather a vinyl. I could be completely wrong, can I get a confirmation? Thanks!

    That's a good question. Go to the website (link) and there is a chat session option. I would directly ask them if there are stickers or the real deal. You are probably correct. With the number of finish options they offer, it might be just an sticker overlay and not real CF.

    I did talk to them and they confirmed it is just a vinyl sticker. If anyone knows where I can get the real CF steering wheel inserts that would be great! Thank you @Peterlb for the help!
