Thanks everyone! Don't hesitate to PM me if you need more info or you just want to chat about the wheel
And great find @Sbeezy! Those buttons kinda resemble the EVOX wheel controls with the square buttons. Would be cool to have the audio controls for sure! Thanks again, Rick |

Just installed one of these in our FR-S. This steering wheel feels amazing! The quality of the Prova wheel is impressive. I agree with Rick, it definitely makes driving more enjoyable.

Just got finished changing my wheel. It took about 30 min. and I took out the 2 - 7.5 amp fuses but left the battery cables connected. Had my i-pad in the passenger seat with this DIY on for reference. It was not difficult at all but would have been a chore if I did not have your instructions.

I actually installed a TRD wheel but these instructions made an easy go of it. I posted pics on #6301 in thread "WHAT DID YOU DO TO YOUR FRS TODAY?".

Not sure what I am doing wrong haha. Airbag is out nut is like 80% off and the steering wheel is locked in place so I don't turn it by accident (does that affect pulling it off?)

big thanks to @RallySportDirect
I talked to nick and he gave me the suggestion of nudging it from side to side and it came out in like 10 seconds. DO NOT pull 100% directly lol. Definitely do it from side to side and that will work the best. Thanks again!

I have the Cusco carbon wheel and love it.
As a warning to those out there: when removing the steering wheel, make sure you are careful not to pull out that set of wires (also called a clock spring) out of its spindle. Doing so will cause a world of electronic hurt. You will lose your horn, air bag, cruise control, ABS, and TCS. Plus it's roughly $500 to replace the two parts needed if you do damage it (even more $$ if you have an FRS). So when removing the steering wheel, just be careful not to have the wires get caught on something. |
