FS: 2nd Gen ('05-'10) Clockspring SOLD

SOLD!!!

I have a Clockspring (Spiral Cable) from my '05 Taco. It's in excellent condition. I'm selling since I recently replaced it with a new one that also supports audio controls. This one supports the DS-Airbag, Horn & Cruise Control. Dealer sells for these for $266.91 (#84306-04080). Asking $75 + shipping.

 

So did you upgrade your truck to have the audio controls in the steering wheel?

 

Yes, that's why I'm selling my original "standard size" airbag cover.

 

How much did it cost and how hard was it to do it? i have been wanting to do the same with my truck...

 

Premium clockspring (eBay): $80
Audio controls (eBay): $35
Small airbag cover (eBay): $70

Total = $185

You could cut cost by carefully "trimming" your existing airbag cover.
All in all, I found the entire project to be straight forward. Just follow all precautions listed in the service manual when dealing with the airbag.

 

I am very interested in doing this to my truck as well, I guess im not that handy...lol

What are the part numbers for these items? I have a radio out of an 07 I think, I will definetly do an swap out for something else to get this upgrade.
Premium clockspring (eBay): $80
Audio controls (eBay): $35
Small airbag cover (eBay): $70

 

Do you have any pics to show how it turned out?

 

Not handy, but my buddy who has a '09 Taco has told me he can't tell the difference from his. Since the 2010 is identical to the '09, you can look at interior photos on www.toyota.com

 

I could provide you part #s, but buying new would be cost prohibitive ($1000+). The only practical way to do these mods is to go on a Easter Egg hunt. Look on eBay, TW, craiglist, etc. Besides, finding a great bargain is half the fun of modding! Incidently, the airbag cover is not available in the US - only the entire airbag (~350 used). I found my cover on eBay from a reputable Taiwanese supplier.

 

this also what is needed to get rid of the airbag light that commonly comes on after 50k miles?

 

Never heard of a "common" issue with the airbag light coming on after 50k. That said, a faulty clockspring can certainly be the culprit of the airbag light coming on (horn &/or cruise no longer working as well). You can verify this as the cause by removing the clockspring and performing a continuity check across the terminal pins from input to output. If your clockspring is indeed faulty and you do not have audio controls on your steering wheel, then you may want to seriously consider purchasing the clockspring I currently have for sale.

 

just from what ive read here, i have yet to get it diagnosed or anything. horn works, dont have cc... just the annoying light on the dash.
im going to search for a how to on the clock spring and if i feel i can handle it i may pick this up from you if i can see if thats the fault.

hey Im trying to but the Premium clockspring, so I can install the Audio controllers in the steering wheel,I already got the steering wheel that comes with the audio controllers, so I guess the only think I need is the clockspring.

Im looking at ebay but there's none for Tacomas, theres a lot for other toyotas but not for tacomas.

Do you guys know where can I but this?

thanks in advance

 

I just got lucky and this guy had one for sale. You could check junkyards or on here.

 

thanks for the quick response. You are lucky, I just cant find it. Do you know if yours is something like this one. this is a toyota 4runner clockspring, but I thing it looks the same, but im not sure.

I check some that comes from japan but instead of having one harness receiver it got two. So it looks like this one.

thanks for your help!!

 

I'm not sure if those would work. Id think you specifically need the taco one. This isn't something to mess with. It could save yiur life.
