jamesmark Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Nic said once that you are talking for a new OEM steering wheel is £800+ and thats him getting it from Japan so UK Toyota should charge you well over £1000 probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, fecking ouch. Can see a TRD coming. Shame cos I like the original. Mine isn't too bad just a tad shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Can't you just get them retrimmed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 TRD one is nice, or you could get the stocker retrimmed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 On Supraforums it's $637, that's excluding the centre horn bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Like the sound of getting it retrimmed mind you, Does Supradibbs do this? South Coast Custom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Like the sound of getting it retrimmed mind you, Does Supradibbs do this? South Coast Custom. Gibson & Boyne (I thinkit Boyne) they have probably the best rep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike M Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Cool, cheers mate. I'd never thought about retrimming them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I've seen a TRD one G&B retrimmed and it was just superb, easily as good as new. There's a thread round the forum somewhere. PS: I have a spare 4 spoke but with no airbag bit, just in case you need a spare to send off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite a TRD one but they have done a stock one. Not a nice choice in colour but shows how good they are in craftmanship. http://www.gibsonandboyne.com/gallery/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 TRD one here matey: http://www.gibsonandboyne.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=97 Think I might get one of my wheels redone by them...

Not a nice choice in colour but shows how good they are in craftmanship. http://www.gibsonandboyne.com/gallery/ Yeah , that's a terrible colour but looks very well done. Thanks for the offer Homer much appreciated. I'll see closer to the time as I can use the VW as long as it's behaving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supe Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 or would a new celica one not fit, just an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 or would a new celica one not fit, just an idea Yeah, some guy's on SF use them but, the search feature on SF is down at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 The IS200 is not too far way from the TRD one either....not sure it would fit ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike M Posted March 25, 2007 Author Share Posted March 25, 2007 Thanks guys:) , Think its either gonna be a retrim or a TRD one. Pete, those facelift wheels are impossible to get a hold of arent they? They're the ones with the carbon fibre inserts. Very nice too.
