Make sure to check availability of that airbag cover thoroughly, there can be quite a wait for the leather one if there are none in stock in your color.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

how much would it cost to buy a 3 spoke wheel? would i be able to do the change? how difficult? how much would dealer charge? has anyone done this?

POST 2Original post

You should be able to get a leather wheel for around $400, and you need to get a new airbag/horn cover for either about $160 or $280 I believe, depending upon whether you get vinyl or stitched leather. Plus or minus $50 on any of those, been a little while since I did mine. These parts also turn up on eBay pretty regularly, if not constantly. Make sure to check availability of that airbag cover thoroughly, there can be quite a wait for the leather one if there are none in stock in your color.

POST 3Original post

I have swaped the steering wheels on several car and filmed one of them for the DVD. Not hard to do. Takes about 15 minutes. I bought my 3 spoke with air bag from a local Boxster S guy for $400, who converted his car to a track car. My friend sold his 3 spoke with air bag to another friend as he was turning in his leased car, for $500. You can find them on ebay but people bid them up so high you could buy new for the same money. Also most of the carbon and wood wheels I see on ebay have flaws. See if you can find someone converting to a track car. Jeff

POST 4Original post

I would try to get one eBay for under 500 with airbag. I got mine that way. Replacement is eay if you use right tools...:-(
