    Updated the dated and ugly 91-93 steering wheel to the 94-95 wheel. This is also the Supra and Celica wheel.

    Agreed, who knew that my stock 7th gen Corolla steering wheel would be an upgrade! It does look a lot better.

    I think the second wheel is obviously better, but it still looks bloated and ugly. Get one of cBass' corolla s wheels

    Noooo! That's a supra interior! I posted that pic for the example of the wheel...


    This is an mr2. Not supra sexy. But still decent for a 90's car.

    This is the MR2 with the newer wheel. IMO I don't' like how it flows with the 2's interior.

    Haha. No. Mine is torn apart right now because I gutted the interior. Cleaned every little inch I could. Vents, Under the carpet. Behind all panels. Clean clean cleaned!

    I also Installed Low mileage Dash, Seats, Carpet and steering wheel. Even the interior got a refresh.
    Added: Jun 20, 2013 at 2:42 AM

    Me neither. Just wanted to post the wheel

    OK well I think it and the red stitching look better than just boring oldschool Toyota grey.
