Rather than hijack another thread here about a steering wheel, I thought
that I would start my own.

I have to remove the steering wheel from my coach and return it to the P.O.
It's a special classic collector type wheel. I do have the original GMC
wheel, but I really want to install the same wheel that Ken Henderson has on
his. I've bugged him with enough stupid questions for now, so I'll ask the
collective group instead.

Ken's wheel http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/our-x-birchaven/p459.html

Is from a Chevy S-10. I believe that they were also used on the GMC
equivalent - the Sonoma?

Can anyone tell me if this is a pretty straight forward swap from the stock
wheel? I have a wheel puller, but haven't done this since auto shop class in
1977.

I'm guessing that Ken painted his. The metal portion of the wheel I can
handle. The vinyl portion that is touched constantly concerns me though.
What paint adheres well enough to endure constant use?

Thanks all,
