I'm ready to replace the steering wheel on my 92 s13 with an aftermarket model. The problem is that my stock wheel has the cruise control switch on it and I can't find a wheel on ebay that provides for this. I thought I might just pick out a wheel and then try to drill a hole in it for the cruise control wires to the switch to go through and then stick the switch on top of my new wheel with double sided tape. I don't want to spend more than $50 on a steering wheel and the adaptor. Ebay has some in that price range. Some cost less and some cost a lot more. Any idea on what choices I have?

well then just mount your cruise control buttons elsewhere. If i knew where this one particular picture was i would show you, but they had mounted it where the windshield washer fluid light is, right next to the useless "block" where automatics have their overdrive light i believe

i couldn't agree with you more, plus, using these little blocks and drilling them or cutting them out makes a great place to put switches and other things of the sort.

about your cruise control question, i remembered a little harder, adn they had actually mounted that little three button cruise control section BELOW those little blocks...

Or if you're a badass pull out the little DIN tray below your radio, and get some aluminum and fab up a little box. Put your switches in there, get a speed cut switch, maybe some fog light switches or something and even throw a gauge on there. its damn near free, and it took me maybe one hour to complete
