I have a question regarding the IUP steering wheels:

I know that the aluminum spokes can be removed from an IUP wheel, but can BOTTOM spoke be PLACED onto the GT500 steering wheel (the lower part only)? Basically, does anyone know if the lower spoke of the GT500 wheel is removable like the IUP wheel, or is it molded in place like the base wheel.

I already know that the upper pieces won't work, because the GT500 wheel is leather wrapped in that part. But, I was thinking that the bottom in silver *may* look good, since I have the IUP already. But, I don't want to be the guinea pig that finds out the hard way, and end up with at least one messed up steering wheel, and maybe even two.

thanks in advance

 

The lower silver spoke from the IUP and the graphite spoke from the GT500 are the same part. So, yes they will swap out. They easily pop off and on.

I'll trade you my silver spoke for the graphite one. PM me

 

Awesome, thanks for the info.

Actually, I don't need the silver or the graphite. I have a GT500 steering wheel, and I want to use the bottom silver spoke off my IUP wheel on it. I just wanted to check to make sure they interchanged, before ruining one or both in the process

 

Well, I got my GT500 steering wheel today. I didn't realize that the bottom spoke is GRAPHITE, not BLACK. So, I will probably just keep the GT500 factory spoke
