5th Gen Camaro ZL1 Suede Steering Wheel

Post by Silversled »

The stock 2014 steering is over-molded polymer and feels cheap. Mine also had wear marks from service either from a gun belt or an officer's donut gut (with utmost respect to all in Blue). All my cars with the exception of the Grand Cherokee have Ultrasuede steering wheels and I've grown to love the feel of them.

Knowing that the airbag configuration is common between the 2014+ PPV and the 5th Gen Camaro, I bought the optional suede steering wheel for the ZL1. The ZL1 is fairly stripped and as a result the cruise and radio controls are nearly a duplicate to the PPV's. Close examination of the wiring confirms this. Also both steering wheels have the same diameter with the ZL1 having a flat bottom.

In less than 15 minutes, the new wheel is on and the controls were confirmed to work. This is another no modification BOLT ON for 2014+ PPV's.
