Default Aristo Steering Wheel

Does anyone know if Toyota Steering wheels can be installed in our 1st Gens?? How about an Aristo Steering wheel off of a 2000 model??

To properly discharge the bag disconnect the battery terminal and the hold you brake pedal for 10 seconds to release any residual power. To remove the stock bag remove the plates on the side of the wheel one left one right the you will see 2 star type fasteners pull those and you will be able to pull the airbag out. Once out you will see the single 17mm nut(if i remember correctly) holding the wheel pull that and disconnect the plug in the center(cable rail) you wheel should pull off. Hope this helps!!!!!!
