98 C5 Options
Does the 1998 models have the telescoping steering wheel option (N37)? I have checked the usaual web sites with the options listed and don't see N37 available for 1998. That seems odd to me.
Thanks in advance...happy hollidays!

I don't believe telescopic came out until '99 or '00.

The telescoping steering wheel became an option on the 1999 models. It was not available on the '98s.

It wasn't an option until 99. But you can add one in your car like I did in my 98. Just fine a used one at a junkyard like Gene's Karshop.
