| Thanks to Mike (200OZ from the wagon forum), I have a cool new wheel in the Marshmallow! He sent me a link to an eBay ad a while back saying it was something I had to have... So I clicked the link, and he was RIGHT! I think it's out of a T-Type. I finally got around to installing it today. It's about 1/2" less diameter than the stock wheel, but the grip is much thicker. I LOVE IT! I had to remove my airbag, and coil, and trim about 1/4" off the back of the wheel to get it to clear the airbag column, but it was still an easy install. Horn even works! Thanks Mike! | |

| How do you prevent the airbag light from flashing with no bag? | |

| nice wheel...it looks like it was made for your car

I love the wheel on my '93. Just wish I had more than those two stupid buttons to press the horn. | |

Is that console stock? I thought everyone knew. All white Roadmaster wagons come with analog guages and a floor shifter. | |

| Thanks guys, I diggit too. And yeah, just unplug the bulb. Or you could wire in the proper resistors across the circuit, but I'm too lazy for that. Rich, no Navi. It's just a Pioneer DVD. I paid 300 for it last Christmas. Love it. And the floor shift is out of an Olds Bravada. | |
