Replacing Steering Wheel and Airbag - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #65691 3 posts Started by LastOfTheSTs
Hi Guys,

I've just pruchased from eBay the leather version of my 3 post steering wheel, airbag version.

I want to swap them over bu how can I do this without causing a problem with the airbag. From looking at the unit waiting to go in there are 2 screws that hold the sirwag onto the steering wheel and simple clip to plug the controlling cable in.

The way I logically think about doing this is to disconnect the battery, remove the airbag screws and disconnect the electical clip and then remove the steering wheel. To install the new on I was going to just reverse these steps.

Does anyone know what size nut holds the steering wheel on, is it a standard socket or a special tool?

Thanks
