Should be a Toyota steering wheel hub adapter. What aftermarket steering wheel will you be using?

Did you end up getting a hub or not? I'm looking to get a hub/quick release combo. The Bride is a PITA to get in and out of without it (I know our steering wheels telescope, but that's being removed soon).

I just spoke to Works Bell (one of the better/best companies for quick release) and they said that they have hubs in stock for 5 and 6 bolt wheels.

Didn't realize this was such a popular mod... Not seein' it myself -- rid yourself of the airbag for a racing/sports steering wheel in a luxury sedan for only an appearance benefit? I'm sure I'm missing something...anyone have pics?

you can use any hub that is made for any toyota vehicle. All aftermarket toyota hubs will fit the gs. Just make sure you buy one that has the same bolt pattern as your steering wheel.

Doesn't matter about the bolt pattern for the wheel. I'm doing the Works Bell Rapfix QRS w/ either 5 or 6 bolt pattern on the hub.
Like I said I'm doing it so I can easily get in and out of the Zeta III.
