(it wasnt an option in a 01 GLE)
Is it possible to use a heated 03' steering wheel in a 01' and if so how difficult if at all? (scale 1 - 10)

 

depends how comfortable you are with some custom wiring and if you have the proper airbag... I will be doing this to my 01 SE before winter as well as rewrapping the entire wheel

 

Thanks,
The heated doesnt have the bag..I was going to use the 01's bag

 

You'll need a heated steering wheel clock spring for sure. On you're car its likely going to be all custom wiring because I don't believe the smart entry control has a timer for the heated wheel. So you'd likely have to run a dedicated circuit that you turn on and off manually.

I have the complete wiring for my 2002 that I need to get installed, just haven't gotten far enough along yet.

[QUOTE=Kevin Ellis;8831345]Sarin,
Thanks for that info...very helpful...So can I use the clock spring from the donor car and with that, all I would need to do is get custom wiring to dedicated circuit that you turn on and off manually, right ?

 

Did this ever get figured out, I drove a 6th Gen last night with this feature and ME WANTEE.
