I've amassed quite a collection of Supra and is300 steering wheels over time. I've had one in my truck for quite a while, but the fanciest part of it was a fresh leather wrap. Some time after becoming accustomed to steering wheel buttons, I started to want this in the truck. Since the is300 steering wheels have buttons, I figured I could modify those buttons (intended for the e-shift transmission) to work as radio controls. While I was at it, why not find a way to make it into a flat bottom wheel? I further postulated that it might be possible to use the connectors for the cruise control in order to have a steering wheel mounted push start button. Of course, why go this far and not throw in some carbon fiber?
So, that is how I went down the rabbit hole of building a fully custom steering wheel for the truck. Here's hoping it all works lol. Follow along and find out for yourself!

Steering wheels are safety critical components of a motor vehicle and manufacturers spend millions of dollars on their design, safety/performance testing, and manufacture. Even changing the leather on one alters it from its as tested/as validated configuration and means that it may not perform as intended in regular use or an automobile accident. If you undertake modifying one, you do so at your own risk!
