Hi Experts!
The steering wheel on my 2008 FJ has basically disintegrated and is coming unglued from the inner metal. Now the silly part.... My wife just bought a brand new Honda Pilot, and had a heated steering wheel retrofitted. As part of the retrofit, they gave us the original wheel and all of the trimmings. It literally has less than 100 miles of use. So... the question is, is it of any use to me as a replacement? I know the answer is likely to be "Take the old one off and see if it fits" but I would like to avoid messing with airbags etc if possible.
Also, I understand that none of the buttons would work, but that isn't a concern as I currently have the steering wheel without any controls so it would not be missed anyway.
Also also, I figure there may be a problem with the cruise control lever, which I would say is a secondary concern.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated, and if I do decide to try it out, I will post pictures etc.
Thanks
Nick
