Would be quitea project... Careful with the airbags. I would think you're talking a new steering wheel.

I would think that the amount of work, and cost incurred would not be worth it at all.

My wife was wanting it on her Trailblazer, soI checked on it, it was going to be around $1200 just for the setup. No need to ask, it was not done!!

I had it for a year before I even knew I had it. ThunderRoad 04.I never saw it before that. I was just driving down the road one day and I felt something under the steering well so I pressed it and the radio changed stations. Wow that was neat.

I guess reaching 2 feet for the stereo controls it just too far and too difficult.
