    In the category of "how dumb an idea can I come up with", I'm wondering just how interchangeable Toyota steering wheels are? Like maybe taking one from a Camry with the same options(heated, etc.) and swapping it over? I thought I read that all current Toyota steering wheels are technically interchangeable from a mechanical standpoint, but I'm sure the electrical side would need extra help. But maybe no more than just some re-pinning of connectors.

    Maybe I'll change my mind after I spend some time behind my new wheel(if it ever gets here - delivery date has been postponed numerous times), but I just don't love the look of the Prius/bZ4X wheel.

    I don’t like the look of it either. I like the 2009 and 2022 wheel. The 2023 is smaller. I’m guessing it’s intentional because there isn’t a lot of room to spare. When I had my chance to sit in the 2023 and adjusted the steering wheel it was practically in my lap.
