Default 05 xB Steering Wheel swap?

Hello. I have Googled and read a bunch of stuff. However no threads seem to answer a few questions.

1. If I swap a tC steering wheel into my 05 xB can I use the xB's air bag? Or do I need the full set up out of a tC?

2. Do all the tC's steering wheels work in the xB? How about the xA's?

I am just wanting a Leather steering wheel in my xB with the air bag working.

Thanks in advance.

The xA's and xB's was optional for the leather steering wheel if you can find one, I've gotten one for free from Scion many years ago,
I since then ruined it... it's a simple bolt on #thumbsup

Yes. but they were two tone correct? I was looking for a simple just leather steering wheel while retaining the airbag. I do not like using wraps.

Yes, they are 2 tone but can be dyed any single color you desire.
I made my red and black one silver and black to match the interior colors.
My current problem is it doesn't fit my replacement 06 Box.

06' has a different wheel because of the audio controls.

when you dyed your wheel. did the dye rub off over time? or did it stay strong?
