- Replace your steering wheel in 10 minutes or less.
This will work for a Subaru Baja models 2003-2006.
I used a steering wheel from a 2003 Subaru Outback.

IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY BEFORE DOING THIS. NOT DOING SO COULD RESULT IN DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG.
1st thing I thought as soon as I heard the horn beep. The guys at one of the shops I do tech support for detonate the recalled Takata airbags that are removed. They pack a heck of a punch.
Man I was thinking that the whole time haha. Great tip!
The fact that you use the word "loosened" on those T30s was so clutch; I was about to snap those tabs.
This was so easy. It took me less than 10 minutes. If your steering wheel is jacked up, replace it. I bought this brand new wheel on Ebay for $170 you can get them a lot cheaper. I just wanted this leather wood grain version.. You guys got this! Do it!
I need to change mine also, and put in a new turn signal switch in my Dodge Ram. I think I have to use a steering wheel puller for mine as a lot of the American Vehicles are pressed on. I have one of those but it is in storage and it would take an act of congress to find it haha. I have always liked those Subaru's. They say they last forever.
You made that look so easy!
That new wheel looks real nice...
You be stylin while drivin
ha! i was gonna comment about disconnecting the battery, but you got it covered ;)good to see that the process is similar to my pickup truck. :)
Jaxx you always seem to have a great helper with your videos... great how to vid man,
Great job brother I was always told if you didn't do it properly the airbag with blow up in your face LOL makes me feel a little better about doing that. God bless have a great day
I was waiting for the air bag to go off, lol. God job Jaxx.
That's would have scared the shit out of me.. Although maybe that video would have went viral.. hahaha
Great Job Jaxx and that is a sweet looking steering wheel my friend.
simply the best video, instructions and humour.
Great instruction, Jaxx.. What an easy car to change wheels on, compared to some. Thank you for the video
I don’t have a Subaru. Lol. Very good instructional video though.
This was incredibly helpful. Thanks so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video but a few issues:
1) Disconnect the battery and wait two mins before touching the airbag harness.
2) don't let the clockspring rotate (the spinning thing with the "top" and "bottom" arrows) without the wheel attached. You rotated yours a full 360 degrees when you removed the wheel. That can damage the clockspring.
Well, that new one looks pretty darned classy!
..... the boxers were cool too!
a man of many talents. i used to be really into mechanic work... but doing it so often of necessity destroyed it for me.. now i hate it lol
Also a tip, disconnect the battery and remove the Airbag fuse 10 mins prior to removing airbag.. the last thing you'd want is that thing going off while you're holding it.
Good tutorial.
Freaking awesome jic
nice video
I thought those looked like boxers. I'm still laughing. Good job on the replacement BTW.
Hello again! 😲. 2 star screws.. got it! 👍🍺🍗🥓🥩🍤
I just bought a 2000 legacy with a old rubber wheel and bought a new Subaru momo wheel out of a 2002 Subaru Impreza wrx, I just realized that the new wheel doesn't include the cruise control arm so hopefully I can drill out the slot for that and continue to use it if not it's not a huge deal considering I don't use it often but hopefully I'll work
How in the world are you working with airbags with the battery still connected??? Wow!
1:38 my man doing this video in his boxing draws lmfao
Thanks for this video. I'd imagine my JDM BH5 will be very similar to this.
Do you know the size of the "star" torx screws?
T30
That looked pretty easy, I would be worried about setting off the airbag. Did you have to disconnect the battery first? The new wheel looks great Jaxx......Take care, Bluefin.
It would be a good idea to disconnect the battery yes.. I;m glad you mentioned that.
Hi Jaxx Drinkwater. I have question: is position behind steering wheel same after change? I see shape of first -silver and second "brown" are different,so that is reason why i'm asking... Ps. Would you like to sell maybe that ripped "silver"?
Nice video and by the way your look is great for a KFC commercial
He's wearing boxers in his boxer powered Baja lol
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
What size is the star screw?
My steering wheel is not centered with wheels after replacement, i was not really lucky :(
I bought the LLBean wheel, installed but the Baja airbag won’t fit. It won’t go far enough down into the opening. Did you buy a different airbag?
I didn't buy the LL Bean wheel.
Even with my superior brain I'm not sure I would have attempted that. To top this video I plan on doing an oil change on my Suburban completely naked.
Oh heck yes , just make sure you get the angle right. It will be an epic video for sure..
I can't wait.
That was way easy. I remember hearing how hard it was to pull a steering wheel off an Americians made car.
You are right. sometimes you have to have a steering wheel pull tool. I made a video on changing out the struts that I haven't posted yet. Now that a little more involved.
:)
Pretty sure there isn't anything you can't do mon ami
Don;t tell anyone but I can;t whistle very well.. true story..
