yes it will. with a slight mod.

yup, just rewire the airbag

and of course, you'll have no cruise

does anyone know if it is a single or 2 stage airbag system?

by **Eye8Pussies** » Wed Sep 17, 2008 7:16 pm

should be a single stage- but regardless, it works

there was a discussion over on TN about this- single stage, dual stage, non-working airbag, wiring, etc.

In the end, several cars have used it, so we know that it won't pull SRS codes (which theoretically means it will work), and then some guy came out and said that he had it in his car (mr2 or corolla, I don't remember), and when he totalled his car, the airbag went off, so that was the definitive proof of the airbag's proficiency

you can look it up on TN....it's on there somewhere....lol

Thanks for telling me that! At first I've always wanted a TRD steering wheel, but as a person who commutes along a heavily-policed route to work, I think I'll just look for a Gen1.5 Appearance Package steering wheel. Thanks for the heads-up!

great looking wheel, but I could never give up cruise control. i've driven a work truck without it and it drove me nuts on those long commutes.

There is a difference?

Im sure there is a way that you could wire up cruise control... I probably couldnt, but i bet it can be done

there is, but it is not worth it.

probably....but nobody's seemed to figured it out yet after all these years even with the celi wheel....the number of wires are different, so I guess people don't want to sit down and guess/try the different combinations

as for cruise control....tell me about it....the first thing I did after my tranny swap was take a drive to ottawa...not too far from Toronto...only about 4 hours or so...and then I realized that my cruise didn't work anymore....lol...and now I take 8-9 hour drives regularly back and forth from nyc....the irony of it

Of course no one has figured it out, its the camry community :lol:
