You could ask them about it. It says they carry them and to ask about them. Does your car have an airbag? If so, that may be the problem. I don't know if this is a Grant wheel, but it appears to be one that would go on an older style steering column (a round one without an airbag). Anyway, the Hub kit is what is going to cost you. I just bought a Grant http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Grant-APC-Chevy-Ford-Mopar-Steering-Wheel-3-Spoke-/220713877234?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3363927ef2 but the billet hub http://www.jegs.com/i/Grant/470/5196/10002/-1 cost nearly three times what the wheel did (when I got my wheel, it was $17.99 + 15.00 shipping). My car is a 1988 with a round column and no airbag.

Anyway, best bet would be contact the seller and see what they have to fit your car.

In the pic it looks like 6 holes for mountin u need the momo 2401 hub adapter, you lucky if you had an 03+ you would have to swap the steering column for a 95-02, if its 5 hole you need the grant hub adapter

Are you sure that will work on a 2002? It says it is for 82-94.

Cool, someone should send them an email letting them know. They have probably lost a few sales because of that.

its problaby worth the price, by that i mean its probably worth 20 bucks. bargain basement cheap quality parts. if they are selling it for 20 bucks it means it probably cost 5-10 bucks to make. do you know what kind of quality you get for that price?

Its a nice looking wheel, but i will warn you it will start to fall apart in a year or so. The stitching will come loose, the glue on the leather will let go around the silver metal spacers near the top and the blue metal pieces are just glued in and they will pop off once the heat gets to it. I've had all of these things happen to my knock off steering wheel. I can take some pics if you like.
I paid about the same price for mine thinking i got a good deal and well not quite so. I guess its as the old saying goes you get what you pay for.
I'd save up the money and get a nice Sparco or MOMO wheel. even a Grant or APC would probably stand up a bit better then the one your looking at now. Just my opinion.
