Installing A Custom Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel For My MK5 Toyota Supra!

- 👋 Check out the new carbon fiber steering wheel for my manual Toyota Supra! This new wheel from GR Store has a flat bottom design, carbon fiber on the bottom with trim, white stitching and even a center stripe! In todays video I show how to remove your factory steering wheel from the MK5 Toyota Supra and replace it with an aftermarket steering wheel! Removing the steering wheel out of my 2023 Supra wasn't all too difficult. Hardest part is finding the springs to pop off the airbag. Once that's out it pretty easy disassembling the parts. I even replaced the airbag cover with a leather cover that has white contrast stitching with a gloss black Toyota badge! GR Store has a really nice selection of custom steering wheels in different color leather, alcantara, stitching options and carbon fiber pieces. I really like the smooth black leather I went with to match OEM. And the carbon fiber on the bottom matches perfect to the carbon fiber center console. The white stripe ties in the white stitching found in the Supra, and the steering wheel even says Supra on the bottom trim piece. The new leather airbag cover really ties it all togehter giving the Supra a sporty steering wheel! To replace the airbag cover you do need to careful pull the airbag itself out of the stock housing and make sure you keep it folded to fit in the new housing properly. The buttons on the stock wheel have two screws holding them in and then you can easily pull that whole piece off and transfer to the new steering wheel. Overall installing a new steering wheel on the Supra was pretty straight forward and I love the result! The GR Store steering wheel looks like an OEM quality product and really ads to the design of the Supra interior to make it even more sporty! They carry steering wheels for automatic Supras which will have cut out identical to factory for your paddle shifters, but you can also order a manual steering wheel which will be smooth on the backside.

Looks superb! It’s a shame Toyota didn’t do something similar with their flagship car.
For real! They had every resource to at least use an M2 wheel or something better then a leftover wheel from 2010 lol. But at least there are sweet aftermarket wheels now available.
I also like how it has a flat bottom, that way you don't have worry about hitting your lega on the wheel.
Yeah it's very functional! And being carbon fiber, it slides on your leg better to make it a tad easier to get in and out! Love it!
Looks much better!!
Thanks!
Looks amazing bro! Thanks for detailing out the process, video tutorials make installing things much more comprehensive than something written out. Definitely looking forward to going aftermarket with my wheel!
Glad you enjoyed the video! Fun project to work on actually. Just getting the airbag off the wheel is the hardest part. Have patients with that! lol
Looks great! I love the flat bottom with the carbon fiber and the leather stitched air bag cover. Major improvement! Great job. 👍
Thanks! Yeah it was the perfect style for the car!
Been considering this mod myself, so thank you for uploading this!
Glad you liked the video! Fun project to tackle! And great product for the cars!
Thanks, this is exactly what I need! ❤❤❤❤
Nice! Super cool look!
Very similar to my aftermarket one as well. Nice upgrade too!!!
Yeah lots out there. Definitely love the quality of this brand!
Nice one man! I'm loving your new Supra! Looks absolutely sick that new steering wheel. Loving the vids 😁👌
Thanks! 👍 glad you are enjoying the videos!
Nice steering wheel. Didn’t know that store existed. I just bought one 4 days ago but I cut the middle man out and saved some $.
Yeah he has a lot of great products and more coming!
Looks awesome man!
Thanks!
Now you know I'm going to chime in on this one. I've mentioned the steering wheel before.
Yeah this was a sweet wheel to install on the Supra!
That is the sickest steering wheel ive ever seen. Great upgrade Brian. 😊
Thanks 👍 Definitely loving the new look!
Love it man! Looks great! I definitely need to change out mine as well. I hate the look and the feel of the OEM wheel
It's a sweet upgrade for sure!
This might be a good suggestion, what if you changed the color of the interior of your supra to make it 10x better.
Yeah maybe. Would have been cool if Toyota offered more then just black interiors
That old wheel was the weak point visually on the car. Thats a huge upgrade.
Yeah it was too basic. Not sure why they didn’t give it an M wheel from factory
Gonna need to change those seatbelts out to blue!
Lol they still match the calipers 😅
@@BrosFOURRSpeed 🤣 ok B
I did a similar mod to my mk5 but I regret not doing the airbag cover. Good thing it's not too expensive at 200 ish.
Yeah once I saw airbag covers available in leather, I feel like that really brings up the interior. Definitely worth the cost. Can always just order one from GR store to complete your wheel ;)
Yo I must say that when you unwrapped the wheel, I wasn't sure how it would look after installation but it really pops off especially with the Supra badge on it!
Thanks! Yeah I love how it's very OEM like. But the touches with extra leather and carbon look so good!
i actually really liked the oem steering wheel but the new one really made the interior so much more refined. wow it looks so good
Yeah the one is so cool!
Dude, your supra has a really nice start up verbal.
Thanks! Love the MST downpipe and AWE exhaust!
Car looks sick
Thanks!
Yeah I must say I wasn’t a huge fan of the Supra in black, and that blue wrap really transformed this car. That black blue mix is unique and looks amazing. It looks a bit like the blue from the Nissan Z.
@@C51Simon My Z was going to be blue lol. I had all the sample vinyls and had already picked out this color. Then we had a Blue Z press car. Very close color. Car really pops now!
Removing the airbag is literally the worst, i just replaced my steering wheel 3 days ago. Ive been having nightmares about the airbag ever since.
As long as you disconnected the battery it should be fine. They are designed to only go off if a charge is applied to the wires
This car looks sick!
Thanks! Loving how it's turning out!
@@BrosFOURRSpeedWelcome dude!
love the new steering wheel, but is there no 3rd party fake vent mod to get rid of all the fake vents? that would be my top priority.
There are open vents to replace them. But they don’t lead to anything, so they’d still be useless. I look at them as trim pieces
Awesome steering wheel
Thanks! Love the new look!
That upgrade is amazing!
Still not sure why Toyota gave the Supra a fugly steering wheel.
Yeah Toyota should have put the M2 steering wheel in this!
I believe that's probably one of the most important steps when installing a new steering wheel, so that you don't have the horn blasting in your ears. I wouldn't want to loose my ear drums
Yeah very smart to disconnect the battery on an install like this
Dude, that steering wheel is fire bro
Thanks!
Where did you get those carbon fiber rear duct blades those are sick.
Nevermind I found them on your site.
Lol yeah we carry them!
I don’t mind the stock steeeing wheel, but understand why some find it a bit too thin. Have to say my 2017 leather GT86 one felt better. Love yr middle horn part that looks really nice.
Yeah the leather airbag cover is such a cool touch! GT86 has a pretty cool wheel!
I ordered an oem 6spd steering wheel from carismo design..no holes on the back side for me👊
Oh cool! I could have ordered one specifically for a manual. But he had this one redly amiable and we wanted to get this video done quickly
Not being picky but I was hoping you were going to give your supra a little rev
Took it for a nice spin in the video! Let the car rip a bit!
It looks epic! Do you mind sharing the exact link for the specs you chose on this steering wheel? I can't find a model listed on the gr-store that has the exposed carbon fiber at the bottom and leather on the top.
Thanks! Message him and they can make whatever you want. This happened to be one he had in stock that fit the design I was looking for. So it's a combination of ones he's got in stock and custom ordering one. So message GR Store and if you want this exact style they can make it ;)
I did make the link available for pre-orders. Being a very unique design, I was testing the waters with it. 🙏❤️
😊❤
Glad you liked the video!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed GREAT CAR TOOOO 🤩
Nice man! Did you waning lights? We installed a shift indicator steering wheel on my 2021 Supra last year. I love it, but now my cruise control wont engage. Im thinking its not centered properly.
Oh cool! No warning lights on my car and all the buttons work perfect since they didn't get changed. Maybe you didn't plug everything in? There is only one way to put the wheel back on, so it should be centered. Might just need to adjust your tie rod ends to get your wheels straight
That wheel is incredible looking! Don’t be mad, but I think I want mine the same as yours. Maybe I‘ll change the stripe color, anyway great vid made it look easy!
Do it! Contact them and they can get you a matching wheel however you'd like!
How about a cupholder mod?
What cup holder mod?
The torque spec for the steering wheel bolt is actually only 45lbs
Oh yeah? Seems more then that tho with how much it took to remove lol
However I don't think my torque wrench is too accurate. So it might be at like 65lbs
Do you know why some models have the t60 torx bolt like yours and some have the 16mm bolt? I'm doing mine in a month and trying to gather all the right tools. Also, was the impact wrench not working well enough?
2023 has the torque bolt. For what ever reason they changed it for that year. Impact wrench didn't get it. Breaker bar was the only way I could get it off. Need a lot of grip on the wheel to hold it while someone else pushes the bar down
Quick question and not sure if you'll see this or respond.. i am thinking about purchasing one of these and was not sure as to why there is a almost cotton like area surrounding the back side of the horn emblem... I see that the cutouts are the same, but do you think that the aftermarket one not having this material could be dangerous in a collision?? Thanks!
Not too sure to be honest. That definitely a good point. The aftermarket one does have the same grooves in the plastic where the cover should rip apart. But wouldn't really know for sure unless it was tested
Hi there, the new wheel looks great. My only concern is whether the airbag will still work properly after putting it in the new housing. That bit of the process seemed a bit dodgy to me?
It shouldn't have any issues. Make sure you don't unpack the airbag and it will fit perfectly into the new one. Also the new airbag cover has the grooves cut in it that will rip apart for it to function. So there shouldn't be any issues
@@BrosFOURRSpeedthanks a lot
I would disconnect the battery negative instead of the positive. Other than that, awesome video!
I took both off tho. Easy enough ;)
Hi - I tried looking up the GR store shop - however, it seems the website is not functional and neither is the Instagram account. Have they shut shop?
He actually changed business names. Here is his new company.

Dude, why does leather make things 10x better.
Because it looks premium. Way better then plastic
Too bad it isn’t right hand drive but good overall on the thumbnail
I believe these wheels will work for right hand drive cars too. Might have to ask him on that
Tried the breaker bar and no budge. Then used an impact for that T60 bolt and it came right off.
Oh nice. Your impact gun we stronger than mine. I had to hold the wheel super tight of it to not turn while we used the breaker bar
Milwaukee m18! Great investment too!
Also thanks for uploading the alignment fix video. I thought It was install error and did not want to remove the airbag again lol
@@anzspy5 oh nice! I’ll check one out!
Glad to help! Drives me crazy if my wheel is crooked 😂
new nismo or 2024 supra? I have to add a car my 2014 Z nismo is now boring :/
If the new Nismo is only Auto, then that’s a big No from me 😅. 9 speed is not good in that car. If it’s got a manual I’m sure it’ll give the Supra a run! So we’ll see
You have to poke permanent holes?! How do you know where?
There are little slots in the back you'll see. Poke right there. Yeah they are permanent holes, but its all rubber and they close back up for the most part and you'll never see them anyways since they are on the back
You could've put the name of your RUclips channel on the steering wheel
Yeah that'd be neat! I can always polish off Supra and cut out a logo lol
Looks good but a GTR will leave you in the dust brotha:)
I raced my GTR against my old Supra lol check it out! ruclips.net/video/DwjuliPGCl0/видео.html
Good video
Those supras sound really nice
Down here in Fort Worth there is a wide body Supra
Sounds really good
@@Fab-md6bd oh cool! The Supra had a lot of potential. Enjoyed my GTR for the 5.5 years I owned it
I tried your promo code but it says its not valid. Is it no longer valid in 2024?
Hmm, not too sure. Might want to contact them and see what they say. They probably just need to update it
I would never say no to leather.
I love leather. They do offer perforated leather and alcantara for everyones taste
Do u have to reprogram the battery?
Nope. Why would you? Once you disconnect the battery, the car doesn’t know your unplugging others things
@@BrosFOURRSpeed 🤷🏽 I heard that if u disconnect or replace the battery u need to. But I’m not sure.
@@ricastar2931 I’ve had two Supra. Never had to do anything after disconnecting the battery
Do you plan improve image quality and sound?9
We use really good cameras and microphones so it’s pretty good right now.
Aren't the air bags very dangerous
Not really actually. They are design to only go off when it gets the electronic signal or some charge to the connections. Once unplugged, as long as you dont touch a batter to exposed wires, your good.
do it
I did it
Next time pull the negative off, not the positive. Also, don't insert the airbag while the system is charged. That was dangerous.
Pulling the negative off won't really do anything. Taking the positive is what takes power out of the car. I didn't reconnect the battery till the airbag was plugged in. Once it's plugged in it won't go off unless the car gets an impact
The leather airbag cover and carbon accent look cool, but the rim looks like it came out of a tacky and cheesy batmobile, the original with the center cover would probably look more stylish and classy, and better made for sure
These wheels are great! I've had other wheels from this company on multiple cars and they are great! I like the look.
