Steering Wheel

[jonjones88]

Did the GXP ever come with the Red/Black steering wheel like some of the old promo pics? If so, what is the part number? If not, can the Holden version be ordered through the dealer? I know we can get them from JHP and CrazyPaul. I want to add one to my Red/Black interior on my GT.

The GXP did come with the wheel. You can get it from Paul.

Pontiac Part number? I can get a pretty good discount through my dealer, although I don't know the cost to the dealer yet.

I've posted the number here somewhere or on G8board.

The GM part number is 92217699 and dealer cost is 368.39 so it might still be cheaper through Paul even with shipping since you won't have to pay tax.

Thanks Greg.

I am assuming that there is absolutely no difference between the Pontiac and Holden one?

The Pontiac is the Holden one.

[jonjones88]

So would the reason that they have a different part number only be one is a Holden part number? In other words are all Holden and Pontiac part numbers different or are most the same. Also, could any owner of a GXP with the Red and Black wheel post some close ups on the leather and the side view, I would greatly appreciate it!!!

There is a slight difference in the leather textures used at least compared to the GXP ones I saw. I have the one from JHP (its a Holden part)

[jonjones88]

Could you post a close up of yours and the side view as well? Hopefully someone with a GXP will post a couple of pics too. That way I can make an imformed decision.

Thanks!!! Now I just need a GXP owner to post theirs, PLEASE!!! Btw, those floor mats have got to go, hehe.

[J Wikoff]

That is a GXP steering wheel.

[johnh]

No the GXP looks like it but I swear the leather patterns are slightly different...but the shape and size are the same.

Keeps the snow, salt, mud and other debris off the carpet..especially when the wife drives and/or we take the kids...they are purely practical and not for looks.

I don't know about that. The wheel you posted looks identical to my GXP. Sorry for the crappy pic.

[jonjones88]

Yeah, they do look the same, at least according to your pic. I may buy the Holden one, the Pontiac one is upside down.:nah:

It has been hard to keep it pointed in a straight line lately...I guess I'll go get the dealer to fix it. :shiner:

[jonjones88]

Yeah, you need to get that seen about, hehe. Thanks again.
