    Hello all, my first post on this great forum!
    I have an 07 tacoma and its going in the shop next week to get an all new interior. Leather seats, stereo, carpets, headliner you name it. But my steering wheel is in bad shape. The previous owner got some white stuff all over it and in general it just looks bad. I really like the new steering wheels from the 2013 but don't know if it would fit my truck. Anyone or there know if it would fit, thanks in advance.

    Yeah the '13 looks cool and all, but the two vertical pillars are made out of cheap plastic. When you do 3 pointers or parallel they creak and I've almost ripped the plastic off...

    I've never had that problem with mine. You must have some G.I. Joe Kung-Fu grip! Mine feels solid, although the vertical pillars are a little cheesy...

    Ha! Maybe so but its just the bottom portion of the pillars where they meet the wheel aren't connected as well as I would expect. Swear it's going to end up in my lap one day!
