I have a spare momo sitting in my bedroom, I hear that a simple boss kit bolt-on is not an option for this car as it has a different setup, I could be wrong. Has anyone done this?, and if so, how did you go about it?
any help would be greatly appreciated....

if it has an airbag then i think you cant put a bosskit on or you have to get the wheel taken of buy a pro or you might kill yourself
but other than that yep you SHOULD just be able to take your old steering wheel of buy a bosskit for YOUR car put that on then put the new steering wheel on and bobs your uncle

If the cruise control controls are on the steering wheel, you will lose them

yeah, I assumed it would be as simple as that, I just didn't want to tear it all apart to find a problem, my cruise doen't work anyway... does anyone know where to source this boss kit?, is it the same as the cressida or supra?

So which bosskit fits the GZ20? Are steering wheels all the same bolt pattern or do you have to get a specific one?

the MR2 ones are good for MX83 cressidas too (so ive been told).
you might luck out on the soarer.. its either going to be similar to a MX83 cressie or a MA70 supra.. i forsee toyota saving money by using a standard coloumn over the three models.
I wouldnt really know though.. ive got the JZX90 chaser wheel.. slipped straight on
