I have a 1971 fj40 soft top, had it for only a few months now.
I want to I put an original steering wheel on it. The person before me has put a sports steering wheel on which looks absolutely ridiculous. I have the wheel.
(Not mine, just showing you which wheel I have.)
But my FJ has the ignition switch mounted on the column in a plastic casing. (like the newer FJs) Is that a whole different column? Can I put it back to having the plane steering column, and having the ignition in the dash? What would be involved?
Is the older type wheel compatible with this shaft? (The wheel I ordered is dated 69-72, but as I said the column is different so I don't know)
Here's a pic of what mine column looks like with the casing taken off.
Here is the look I'm going for (except mine is Right-hand drive)
Thanks
