That's friggin awesome looking man. Nice job and you're right about everybody saying how hard it is to remove the wheel.
Love the new steering wheel it’s a big plus makes the car look so much up to date
Love the dual camera angle for the box opening lol. Looks great. The things you touch should always be upgraded.
Love the wheel! Getting ideas for my C5. Keep up the videos !
Looking for a carbon fiber wheel right now! Thanks for the video shipmate!!
Sweet! Waiting on the “spirited” driving review next! 😁👍
Very awesome install and all my questions answered. Thanks brother.
I'll be buying this ASAP! Sweet vid!
if you take the ground and the positive off, and touch them together it will instantly de-energize the car so you can by pass that 30 min wait time. thats what i have to do at work when i work on hybrid cars lol
Oh no shit.. never thought of that. 👍👍
Steering wheel + shifter + aftermarket seat makes the car so much different
Awesome looking wheel. I ordered the same "squircle" style from them except with a black top mark. Hope mine comes off as easy as yours did 👍
Nice dude. Yeah I'm not sure if I got extremely lucky or the 2 leg puller is really the best "hack" if you will.
VetOnVettes757 I got the same wheel removal tool you did as recommended by dashrestyle so I should be good to go.
One question: can't you just pop the wheel off and re-mount it a few degrees over to get the stripe to the 12 o'clock position?
@@jdmvette negative. I thought you would be able to as well as my wheel is a few degrees off center. The C5 wheel has a little notch in the splines so it can only go on one way. No biggie. I still need to get mine aligned
VetOnVettes757 ok thanks for the heads up. I'll look forward to your next vid after you get it aligned. 🍻
@@VetOnVettes I used the 2 leg puller also and it worked awesome, thanks for the video
Nice! That’s the one I’ve been wanting but have other mods to spend $1000 on
Yep this is on it's way!! i'll get to the expensive mods later.
Love the steering wheel. You have the link to it. I also live in Va.Beach I have a blue C5
Nah man you got really lucky on how the steering wheel pulled off so easily
What did you do to get yours off?
@@jonathanison8475 i had to tap my own holes into the aluminum of steering wheel and then screw the bolts of steering wheel puller kit to the steering wheel. It was a real pain.
u had a color corvette emblem on the old airbag cover now you have a plain one after the steering wheel install?
Oh I just took it off. It was a decal (previous owner put it on).
GIVE ME THE DAMN GO PRO
Good freaking videos thumbs up!
Looks beautiful. I have been trying to find the red panels the one under the glove box and the one under the steering wheel could you tell me where to find them please. Great videos
Thanks man
Love the wheel, but bro buy some lights for ur garage
Where did you get the red panel that is under the steering wheel your car looks great
Ya ,, I couldn’t find it either on EBay,curious how much it was ,who the seller is , appreciate the info
Give me some info on this steering wheel please as far as where it was bought
Why did you pull out the red wire that's for the horn?
Damn I can't remember. You do not need to if not mistaken. I think I may have pulled it by accident?? Didn't mean to confuse you. My bad!
You replaced the airbag unit also too or you just removed the decals from the flags? Also what radio unit did you install? Looks really great and very clean install
Looks awesome, if they were able to make them in a smaller diameter than stock and retain the airbag I’d be more interested... in tall so want a new wheel that my legs don’t hit
Me too, looks like I’ll have to sacrifice the airbag for a smaller diameter wheel
I've got an 04 Z06 and am looking at options. This one looks very good. Is it a smaller diameter than the stock one? Stock seems a little too big to me.
It is not smaller.
🔥🔥🔥 awesome content man
Great job, can you share the link?
Looking at the vendor website, I'm not sure if yours is the D steering wheel or the DD steering wheel, because the shape on the top of yours seems kind of in between the two. Can you confirm which one you got? the D or the DD?
Is it reduced diameter ?
Very slight
Same diameter. They rebuild old steering wheels from Corvettes so no difference in external size, per them. I asked before dropping $1k for a smaller wheel.
@@dzopf what smaller wheel did you go for?
Where do I get that stirring will please
what puller did you use for this ?
Some cheap deal I picked up at Advance auto. Nothing special right off the shelf.
do you need to send your own steering wheel or you get it like that could give the link of that model
I ordered it just like that. Check out there eBay store. They always have slightly different ones. They are all custom made. 👍🤙
good info
can't find that seller on eBay, can you please post a link? Thanks
Is it real carbon fiber?
Yes sir!
@@VetOnVettes That's pretty sweet, i'll be adding this to my list of future mods. Couldnt really think of many interior mods that wouldn't look tacky, so I'm glad you did this video
First of all how much does it cost I wish I was your neighbor then take it off and put it on
I have one hand I don't know how I'll get it offer put it on
gimme gimme
