| I've got a 1991 uzz31, was just wondering if it is in fact a direct bolt on? Have seen people mention it is in old threads but just wanted to confirm before trying to make the purchase. Thank you |

| Yep the wheel itself is a direct bolt on, and the airbag must be single stage. That is if yours has an airbag. Just did the same swap on my 98, and I'm pretty sure all Soarers/ most Toyotas have the same splines. |

Probably around $300+ with airbag. This is the only pic I have...

| hmm the one im looking at doesn't have the shiny L, just black engraved. And has the two DOWN buttons on each side. Does that make a diff? |

| Does this allow you to keep the factory cruise etc ? or do you have to re wire that ? |

| The pack im looking at comes with the steering column as well, and in the picture it shows a near identical from what i can see cruise control stalk so im gonna assume its compatible. That said i have no cruise control because of my manual conversion =( |

The L badge is custom, the plane engraved one just peels off. It will still fit, buttons wont work unless you hook them up to something like suprastick.

Yeah you'll have to buy a new cruise control stalk as the original wont fit. But there's no need to rewire anything(at least I didn't). |

| All the Lexus wheels fit. All of them. Airbags are compatible if they are stage one type (generally pre-2001). Some stage one types require an adapter lead. |

| Hmmm so the 2003 one i mentioned at the start might not be stage one? Can make it still work if not? |

| its probably NOT single stage. and no you wont be able to make it work. some lexus guys tried, but its just not practical with so many single stage ones around |
