I’m sure it’s possible, but VERY expensive. Thousands.

that's what I figured.. If it was hundreds, I would love to have the newer 3-spoke wheel.. and paddle shifters would be a bigggg bonus.

Just the wheel itself from Lexus is $3,500, then the airbag assembly is another $1000.

If the OP is interested, you can get the wheel for 200 dollars and the airbag for 400 on Ebay

Chris always checks EBay first! It's amazing that they have all these parts. One of the steering wheel units even has the DRCC button, in case the OP's car has DRCC. All the 2013+ steering assemblies I have checked have the Shimamoku trim, and might not match the OP's current wood trim. Nevertheless, this might work for the OP if all the connectors match. I would still be worried a bit about the operation of the airbag, and whether all other electrical functions operate correctly after the swap.
