It is not hard, but wouldnt say it is easy. If you got the tools then go for it. What kind of steering wheel are you talking about? A momo one?

easiest seap over is getting a MOMO wheel suited to the EF/EL/AU Falcon ... as they use the same centres. Also to suit the airbag.

Check out ebay, as said above the momo ones will be a straight swap and your airbag and cruise/radio buttons will stay, there's also another type out there (SVO sell them among others) that will be a straight swap and accept the airbag etc too. They're around 200 bucks, momo's probably a little bit more these days. Good luck.

Only three left now. Thanks for the link, I've been keeping my eye out for a nice looking wheel. I don't like the momo ones with the silver plastic bit on top. My interior is going black and blue so it'll match up nicely.
