For advice ....good place to look for used parts. the best is .. www.car-part.com

i found the wheel on there and I just wheeled and dealed with the guy. That sight has everything you'll ever need for a 97-99. I"d look next for a 00-01 bumper if i had enuff dooh. If i had a new bumper my car would be identicle to a 00-01. The steering wheel is more than i could ever ask for, for the spring because I screwed it up twice before from bad Ebay pictures. I thought they were tan interior when it was the gray. Finally I matched it, and up till now it was the best mod, next to the 00-01 taillights.

Question

I wonder if you can use a 96 Coach Edition wheel on a 1st generation ES. I believe the wood matches.

The first year the ES had a wood wheel available was '00. If you saw a wood wheel on a '96 Coach Edition, it must have been a custom job done by a shop like American Stitches or William Rau.
