Hi, I need a new steering wheel and airbag. I know that there are others that fit my car. I'm looking for OEM or aftermarket with horn and airbag. I have cruise control but I never use it. Something like the later Corolla S steering wheel with the 3 spokes. I know that Chester sold a TRD wheel with blue stitching.... something just like that.

I actually still have a mint 7thGenCelica GT-S tri-spoke leather steeringwheel with airbag & wiring harness modified for the 8thGen Corolla. But I've hesitated on selling it, in case I pick up another Toyota oldschooler, to keep with the OEM theme I've had with my previous 'Yotas. You can use the existing cruise control stalk from a 8thGen Corolla or late model Supra on the wheel with slight modification.

All Corollas from AE92s forward use the same Momo hub, so it should physically fit fine. All you need to worry about is the wiring, but that should be easy enough.

Aaron's right, the hub is the same dating back to the late 80's afaik, which is why I want to keep it.

My wheel is practically the same as the Gen8 CorollaS, only mine has red stitching instead of white. Gen9 Corolla S tri-spokes are a bit thicker & wider in diameter, with 4 wires instead of 2; I also tried that on my 8th Gen, but I liked the Celica one better, in terms of steering feel & control.

So the Celica steering wheels are the same? What about others like MR2?

here's the application guide. the 90-91 seems to be the same as well. However, it uses a similar looking wheel to the one that came stock in the AE10x.
