Default Need some guidance!

So I have a '91 I'm getting back on the road after 8+ years. It had a sunroof control issue that built many for the steering column (I'm guessing condensation and rain). The steering wheel is stuck in the up right position. I pulled the telescopic motor since it was the easiest and working somewhat. Once freed spins fine but installed only moves a 16th or so back and forth.

So would there be other models that carry the same column? I've seen sc's on ebay that look real similar, but I also ordered the dome light and it came different connectors.

The short answer is you'll need to investigate and it depends on what you need

The dome light assembly with the sunroof switch is definitely different than the LS

For the steering,, there were two kinds offered. There was a manual telescope and power tilt and a power tilt and telescope version..

I would suggest to find the parts you need here and see if they are used on other models when you select that part number:

Since the LS was pretty revolutionary with the power tilt and telescope steering wheel, I have some doubts you'll find the same tech on many other toyotas of the same year, but it's worth seeing..
