im not too sure, but i know that you cant use an airbag after 2001 with that wheel since there gonna be dual stage. most likely you cant use that wheel. not too sure on that

^ not true, I have a single stage from an 03 RX I believe. It would fit that wheel from the looks. You can't use any single stage airbag, only the ones with factory chrome emblems will fit that wheel (like below) IIRC.

Just make sure the airbag is 01+ and has a single plug. Any of those will work.

One of these would do.

Not sure on that one.

2001+ should fit, 2000 shouldn't.

However, that picture of the air bag in that eBay link LOOKS like it would work to me. But I cant be certain.

It may be that 2000 Lexus wheels were the old style while the toyota's were upgraded a year sooner.

OP, all the wheel is missing is the cruise control. You can just put it in and it will work, along with the airbag.

I think you need the wiring squib, its yellow and allows the cruise/airbag to connect to that; resembles the 2000+ toyota celica steering wheel as well (just no buttons for the UP/Down or the auto trans.
