So, it seems that the KJ only came with a leather steering wheel...am I correct in assuming that? I see no record of it coming with a plastic/vinyl steering wheel. |

Is there a way of taking off the stock wheel and putting on a Grant one instead?? |

According to my window sticker, it was an option with whatever package my KJ came with |

I'm sure you could if they make a adapter for the KJ,you'd loose the airbag though.Quote: Thunderbirdjunkie That's odd it's not even listed on my window sticker.Then again I have never seen a KJ without the same steering wheel in it that I have,granted the airbag cover can be different between the sport and limited models.

Yours is also a Limited though isn't it? Got a pic of your steering wheel cover? Mine looks like pretty much any other KJ I've seen |

Wifes Sport is plastic, mine came w/ the leather cover due to adding the CC option. |

Too bad I can't get that part number from you  . That would take all the guess work out of it at the stealership.

I HATE the leather on my Limited steering wheel. I enquired aboutthe plastic wheel , and was quoted $700 at the dealership, I couldn't be bothered... I may start to look at sport in junkyards... |

Time to start an internet search on used steering wheels at "virtual" junk yards. Someone has to have a plastic wheel with cruise switches.... |

Anyone with a pic of the plastic wheel? I've never seen it and didn't know they came in anything but the leather. |

I think that's the problem. Anytime you get the cruise control option, you automatically get the leather steering wheel. |

If you have Cruise Control, you have the leather steering wheel. Personally I don't like the vinyl/foam wheel... it's not as grippy to me. |

Just saw a Grant ad... They say they have airbag compatible models. http://www.GrantProducts.com Update: Forget it! None for Jeep at all though I did send them an email. |

The cruise control switches are held on with 2 screws. They are completely separate from the steering wheel. |

The switches don't have to be there, as I can use mine. I would think there would be some wiring in the wheel I would need. Now, I also pose this question...would a wheel from a TJ fit the KJ? Anyone try this? |

if u got cruise control, then u got a leather steering wheel, if u got a leather steering wheel with no cruise control then u paid $150. the leather steering wheel group as chrysler calls it came with cruise control and on some models it is a stand alone option... not sure about the kj |
