    Parting Out TX:FJ40/FJ45 Parts Collection

    Probably depends on if it came with one, or if someone put an aftermarket one on it. I've got 3 that I think are aftermarket, 2 like what SOR used to sell and 1 other type.

    I sent you a PM with more info. Jimmy (@Birdhead ) is a super nice guy too. I highly recommend reaching out to him if any of you have one in bad shape like mine was and want to get it repaired. I was going to do mine myself, but I'm glad I had him do it.

    Interior: Steering Wheel & Horn Button

    Today my new / old steering wheel and horn button arrived from @Birdhead and it looks AMAZING! They literally look brand new. My wheel was in such bad shape that my wife was worried it was not safe. Thank you to those that recommended him. I'll take some pics later and post them in here.
