In this Video I show you How the Replace the Steering Wheel in a C7 Corvette. My car is a 2014 C7 and 2014 and 2015 C7's came with a round Steering Wheel. I wanted the new style and so my wife Jennifer bought me one for Christmas, so I finally got a chance to install it.

Great video, just for anyone else out there with a 14-15 that want a flat bottom steering wheel, the 6th Generation Camaro uses the same steering wheel. A pretty good option and probably easier to find locally. Just took a little extra work to swap the silver trim/buttons over. If purchasing a used Camaro wheel some have a heated steering wheel. Not an option on a c7

Hi Victor, If you are changing out the original round wheel with the D shape factory wheel like I did in the video you dont need to change anything just replace the wheel. Everything will plug in. Now if you are wanting to change your original wheel to a different style wheel you will need to check with the vendor or manufacturer to see what you will need.

Great help to change my steering wheel on my 2016 C7. The only step missing was how to transfer the attachments of the steering, my new carbon fiber steering came empty, without all the switches to control radio and shifters

excellent video tutorial, install went smoothly, thank you. Two comments. You forgot to remind me to open the car door BEFORE I disconnected the battery. Also, why did you not mention how many foot-pounds to torque the bolt? otherwise, thanks again, well done.

Thanks for this! Is it guaranteed that the air bag won’t go off if you disconnect the battery and wait 30 minutes? Or is it still able to activate? That’s a scary thought. Thanks!

Great job. Just a tip though, you don't have to wait that long after disconnecting battery. 2 minutes or so is fine. Test if system is discharged by pressing the brakes and working any of the switches on the dash to see if lights come on. That will discharge and residual charge in the capacitors.

They are both great cars. I have to say that my C5 was the most reliable car I have ever owned. I had it for 10 years to the day and it only had to go to the shop once because a mouse ate part of a wire harness. Good luck on your decision!! Let us know what you end up getting!

Great Video, Scott. Wheel looks great. Im looking forward to doing mine. I got my car back from the body shop. They installed the Z06 front grill, for me, since they had to remove the front bumper, anyway. Part numbers in the description, would be nice. Im also seeing 23 ft lb for a torque spec. Part Number 11610164, if you want to replace the T50 Bolt in the wheel center. The new bolt is about $2.95 and thread lock comes on the new bolt, already.

Hello.. I did change my 2014 6 speed auto shirt knob before I started the channel so I did not film it. I will say that the newer 8 speed auto knob does fit on the 2014. Kind of a pain to change but it does fit.
