Thanks for your help and information. I've already done this once and need to do it again. My problem is finding one that isn't priced in the stratosphere! I did find one on Amazon for around $35 but when it came it wasn't right at all. Everything else I'm seeing is in the $175++ area. IIRC when I replaced it last time (only in the fall of '09!!) I paid in the $50 range. Google hasn't really been my friend on this one!

yeah me either, i couldnt find it and had no choice but to go to the dealor.. my only concern was that yellow tab that slides into the hole in the back of the steering wheel...the new one was bent up...but it's molded plastic so...hopefully it holds lol.... if u don't put it in just right, it will break...that yellow pull tab, keep it in until u put the wheel back on. it's in there to keep it from moving so u don't snap it...
