find out how much a stock steering wheel is. might be cheap enoguh to just buy it and send it off and then replace the stock one with it. you could hten re-sell it to anyone else who might want to get it done. then you'll have no down time

I would never swap out my OEM steering wheel because of all the electronics connected to it as well as the Airbag. Its just not worth it.

But I would love it if Lexus would make it an option.

if the wood steering wheel is actually being manufactured for the 2is in japan... then couldn't you just buy that part and replace your leather steering wheel with it???

haha nah cause our wood steering wheel still has the Lexus emblem on it. So unless ur blind there is no comparsion between a Hyundai and a Lexus steering wheel. Well man i guess its ur own opinion and i cant argue with that.
