Replacing steering wheel questions.
Might be replacing my steering wheel. I am not a mechanic. Is it hard? Or how much does it generally cost to get it replaced? I need to send something to them as like a trade (core)? Any tricks I need to know?
I may have found a good deal on a wheel. Thanks people.

You'll need a cheap wheel puller
It's so easy, I forgot how to do it :rolleyes:

Yep, a puller is a must. Even if you have an airbag it's not bad, just be carful with it. I helped my friend replace his entire steering column the other day, when we were finished we put his old wheel back on, the new one was warped :confused: I know on his car the wheels are keyed so that it only wants to go on one way.. I'm sure you COULD force it, but why would you, it should more or less fall back into place.
