Replacing a non airbag wheel with an airbag version - cap questions

[Chilledspode]

I find it a little disingenuous of Grant to show the wheel with the airbag/cap installed....

Thank you again, for going out of your way to help - again

You're welcome! It's no trouble. Good luck on the search, if I run across anything I'll let you know.

And yeah, that is a little shady IMO. At the very least they should put up multiple pictures like the Summit listing.

I do have a spare large airbag that should work for that wheel. I saved it from when I went to the smaller airbag setup to run audio controls. I don’t mind shipping one to canada either. Send me a line if you want to move forward.

@Chilledspode And there you go!

Hobbs saves the day again.

Thanks for the link! I found it on Summit too for anyone else who may be looking, it's Grant part number 61031.

@Z71Hobbs @Cokeman95 @thz71 Tagging these guys so they see this thread, one of them might know where to find a used airbag.

I started a thread in the Interior forum about a new wheel or a leather cover for my existing one. I was looking at the Grant wheel on Summit. According to the comment section the Grant wheels are allegedly "refurbished", but nothing is mentioned in the description.

Doesn't surprise me that they're re-using the original bodies, it would probably be hard to reproduce the airbag mount otherwise. Whatever they're doing it's more than just a re-skin though, if you look closely they have some contours on the sides that the factory wheels don't have. Looks comfy...

The Grant wheel is "only" about $50-$60 more than the quality leather cover I'm looking at (supposed to be quality leather cover anyway), and I'm still debating between the two.......

I already have another good OEM wheel and I'm still thinking about buying one of those Grants. They look nice to me, especially considering the price. I think I paid more than that for my used OEM wheel.
