Default Do any IS300 come with steering wheel shifting?

I just bought (on ebay awaiting shipping) a steering wheel for an IS300 and it has the steering wheel shifting buttons. Every one I have seen does not have shifting on the steering wheel. Can someone help me out? Was it/is it offered on the IS300?

Thanks.

yes, it's the e-shift, all automatics come with it. the one u bought is for manual shift.

do you have an automatic? if u do your sterring wheel should've came with e-shift, if not, the previous owner must've swapped it out.
Unless u have carbon fiber on your steering wheel, then that's a JDM steering wheel and it doesn't not come with eshift.

wow. Thansk for the quick reply. I have an sc300 but want that wheel so I can use the buttons for something else. I just wanted to be sure the wheel I'm getting is in fact for the IS300. Whew.

Thanks again!

Yea, i'm not sure if the air bags work w/ the SC's, i'll be interested in finding out. What year SC do you have? I know that lexus came out with two different Air bags (single/dual stage).
