Please think long and hard about this before you do it. Have you thought about what is going to happen if you get in a wreck? No air bags.... OUCH!

Also....if you actually do the chain link steering wheel, don't forget the little dangle ***** that you find on a sombrero. That would totally complete the look.....

I'd be more worried about having to hold onto it when the sun's been beating on it all day.

There are adapter kits out there, but they're harder to find nowadays....they come with **** carpet for your headliner and dashboard. It also comes with a virgin mary statue that sticks to the middle of the dash, and some guy named "Chuy" who will sit in your passenger seat for as long as you own the car.
Sometimes you can find them in the home depot parking lot.

Sorry buddy. My comments were all in good fun. I know it is hard to pick up sarcasim on the forums. Let us know if you find anything. I did some asking around and it turns out those adapters are hard to come by and no one I know knows where to get them.

Amazing!!!!!

I'm going the complete opposite of you though. I just ordered 20 japanese learner's badges, a carbon fiber hood, grill, body kit, rims, and engine. Lambo doors or on teh way and 50 cathode tubes for the interior also. Can't wait to install. I'll post pics when I get them!

Bump to see if anyone ever came up with a Grant or five hole steering wheel adapter that will fit the Box? I keep hearing rumors that an older Toyota/Grant will work but nobody seems to be able to figure out which one.
