How to Install a Custom Steering Wheel (and What to Check First)

Installing a custom steering wheel is straightforward for a professional, but there are important things to check first. Here's a plain overview.

Before You Order

  • Confirm fitment: Match the wheel to your exact make, model, and year.
  • Airbag and controls: Check whether your airbag, buttons, and paddles will transfer to the new wheel.

Installation Basics

  1. Disconnect the battery before starting, and wait a few minutes before touching the airbag.
  2. Follow your car's service manual for airbag removal and reinstallation.
  3. Transfer the airbag, buttons, and paddles as needed.
  4. Torque the center bolt to spec and reconnect the battery.

We strongly recommend professional installation, especially because of the airbag. If you're unsure, have a shop do it.
