yes they do his is just worn off

They are not! The flash glare is why you can't see the labels on the buttons. 8)

 

Left side buttons are for HVAC. Right side is for radio controls. All of the buttons have duplicate controls on the dash so they are all redundant.

I don't know anything about steering wheel swaps, but I'm thinking that a wheel like mine would be simpler since it has no airbag?? Its the older style, but I actually like it better:

I installed a 1998 Monte Wheel and controls into my 1995 Beretta.

 

All i needed was wheel, bag, controls and clock spring. The assembly pluged right in.

 

There are 4 wires for the controls, 2 light it up and 2 go to the radio.

you do know that the steering wheel controls are also for the climate control too right?

 

Depends on car, i am sure the digital climate would have an input for aux conection. I will have to check out the Olds's.

Last I checked, we were talking about his car. :roll: :roll: :roll: ....if I am wrong someone please fill me in what car we are talking about....

 

...fwiw: I will try to take a pic of the wheel tomorrow...there are fan speed controls (up/down), temp controls (up/down), volume (up/down), seek, Programmed station buttons....

Well, I went the opposite way with the wheel. A Z34 wheel in my Olds(and the Boomina donated it's stereo as well lol cheap). To hell with radio controls. Real men reach for em' or yell at the wife to change the station.

GP gages and a Regal stereo, I'd hate to see that dash at night. :oops:

 

neither were actually in very long...the regal stereo matched but the GP gauges were a test fit before anyone could confirm that they fit and worked correctly....

you should ask Kevin to hook you up with a bowtie for your back window.

I had a small red Olds rocket cut out of vinyl & put on the centercap, after cleaning the black paint & bowtie out of it. All it took was a bit of acetone nail polish remover.

 

I was under the impression that no one made vinyl olds logos...

yikes, factory '90 HUD car. Pretty rare to see.

 

Jeremy, I believe the GP gages plug in and work exactly the same as CS. How well did the Regal stereo match? Usually the Buicks are green where Olds is more aqua. Otherwise I might be tempted! Also is the display huge?

I know the gauges work, I had them in my car :lol: :lol: ...but at the time I put them in no one could confirm that they were interchangeable....

 

The Buick display is actually pretty close to the cutty one, but the display IS HUGE and it just didn't quite fit right, some of the buttons on the bottom of the deck get "cut off" by the cutty dash piece...
