the original is expensive and you might wanna find someone in japan...just find a toyota at a junkyard and take the steering wheel....simple as that

Celica 3 spoke wheel looks close enough to the Ist/bB wheel in Japan, for me anyway. Or you could try (carefully) fixing a Toyota badge in place of the Scion one on your existing wheel.

Try finding a Celica wheel, That's what I'd do if I had the cash to spend on Toyotafying my Scion.

I like the second one better... I don't like the celica one because it has the T badge in some kind of plastic

You don't need the entire wheel, you just need the toyota airbag cover and swap it out.

Swap it with someone who wants to Americanize their Ist.

In other words, not around here :P

Check out this site: www.newscionparts.com

They seem to have most if not all JDM parts as well as all Japanese and USA accesories. Haven't dealt with them personally yet (just got my xA yesterday) but will be placing an order soon....
