    I still have red/blk seats and yeah... I hate them. I have black painted doors and a black steering wheel from a Rodeo. I was going to dye the seats but decided i'll get a set of wet okole seat covers in all black. I had a set of covers before in red/blk and really liked the extra cushioning.

    I'm looking for a red & black steering wheel in good shape. Ours has cancer at the top and is pitted. There is a new gray & black wheel for sale on ebay. $99.

    Yeah, but it's in bad shape. I need a like-new one and I'm not gonna pay $169 for a ratty one.

    it's NOT the same seller… the BRAND NEW one is "factoryoemparts2"
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-99-01-Is...afdd25&vxp=mtr

    the used one is from a salvage yard "hyundai-isuzu-kia" (this yard is always HIGH priced)
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/1999-2000-20...item27cd39ad86

    MANY of us bought these new wheels a few months ago when they first popped up on ebay. I got the black/gray and installed it, they appear to be OEM and look great. A new OEM is $744 from Isuzu with Merlin's discount….so these were a steal!

    I just wrote to the seller to see if he has any more red/black ones left.

    Yeah, I realized that too. Does it really matter though? Why do we hide them anyway?

    Thanks on the tires.

    Got a response...


    Unfortunately we have not acquired any more Red/Black steering wheels and we probably will never see them again. This is left over Isuzu surplus and when we sell out we will not be able to replace.
    sorry

    Where did you get it painted in Denver? I have the exact same VX here in Denver as well. Same original silver color too. Small world.

    I just took it to the Maaco on Colfax. It is a pretty basic job with no clear coat or the door jams sprayed but it does look good if I do say so myself.
