I like the current wheels on the Regal and Lacrosse. Would those airbags be compatible?

I know this is an old post, but I was wondering if you ever swapped the steering wheel. It looks like it would fit.

I have not. But when I do, I will let you know.

Might go with a sport wheel like some of the guys here. Not sure yet.

Yo Cody, I recollect you saying something about looking for a nice clean stock steering wheel?

My friend just got a 98 lesabre. It has the exact same steering wheel, thermostat, and stereo as our Rivs. Maybe more similar parts but those stood out the most.

So if you are looking for a wheel, check those cars too. His 98 with ~140k miles had a perfectly clean wheel.

Yeah I always check those in junk yards. The issues are always that the steering wheels are already all worn out and it hard to find the right shade. I always see another tan/beige that's a little off mine and you can barely tell when you're looking at the whole car but when you swap over one piece, it's obvious. I made that mistake once before. Overall though I just never see clean steering wheels in junkyards for the riv.
I'm currently working on v.2 of my grant wheel which will be a slightly fancier version of what I have now so i've pretty much officially given up on finding a nice stock replacement. One day when I'm practically forced to get another whole car that's minty I'll have a minty wheel haha

Anyone have the grant steering wheel adapter part handy?

Searching on the net and not finding a solid answer.

Thank you
