Thread: New Viper Steering Wheel Upgrade

  1. #1

    Default New Viper Steering Wheel Upgrade

    Just ordered this for the Truck

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/2014-Dodge-V...ee098b&vxp=mtr

    Should look sick in the truck.

    Also just picked up a challenger srt8 center console:

    Can't wait to modify these to fit the truck

    Neat. Is that wheel going to bolt up or is there an adaptor available?

    This should be pretty interested.
    With an aftermarket radio and a steering wheel controls adapter, you could even make the controls work!

    Yea I got bluetooth and stuff, should be able to make most of the buttons work.

    Cruise controls already out of the truck. So no need for that.

    Might setup the launch control for a nitrous set up if I ever run one.

    Stuff should be here in a week or so.

    if you have a way to pass the electrical through the clock spring you can use AMG paddles for a AMG c63. that's what i did on my SRT8. the paddles were a little over 100 bux from parts.com. i used the un-used electrical ports on my clock spring and ran the wires to the auto stick wiring to piggy back on the upshift and downshift wires. so the paddles just do the same thing as slapping the stick back and forth and you can use either the stick or the paddles to shift.

    Those don't look to bad at all.

    Once the swap is done and everything is running good, ill look into installing the paddle shifters.

    Steering wheel is installed, Looks awesome, just waiting on airbag now.

    Looking damn good. You think that airbag can be wired in to work on our wiring? Isnt it just a 2 wire setup?
