Need info on correct steering wheel for 66 Satellite

[440 4 speed]

Thanks to everyone. I believe I have a 66 column with a 67 wheel after using the info given here. I have the 66 trim plate under column, a metal U clamp and no expanded metal on the column to the floor. Additionally I found my wheel is in fact approximately 3/16 bigger than the column housing that has the turn signal lever in it. Guess it is time to find a nice setup. Anyone care to chime in on the incorrectness of a woodgrain on a car that didn't come with one? Taboo? I ask because it seems that I may have better luck finding a really nice/mint/NOS woodgrain more readily than all three pieces for the standard plastic, horn ring and button.

Nice wood grain wheels are pretty pricy!!!!

They make a decent repop wheel. Horn rings can be found. How nice it is will determine how much

IMO you could put a nice black wheel on it and be in it less than a nice woodgrain wheel.

It looks like your carpet has a grommet on the high beams switch. Is that still the original carpet? I’ve heard it said Plymouth didn’t install grommets? Just wondering what the truth is as I’m getting ready to install new carpets in my 67

Carpet is the only thing interior wise that isn't original. Grommet is incorrect 68/69/70. Not sure about 66

Our original 67 does not have a grommet.

If I remember tomorrow I'll check, believe mine has a grommet. I replaced original carpet around 1990, had a think brown sound deadener.

Your grommet looks original.. like most here, pretty sure they were 66, and  fairly sure theyre 67

Here's a link to a link, to the original carpet out of a 66 coronet. And much other discussion Post in thread 'Accelerator fire wall plate under or over carpet?' Accelerator fire wall plate under or over carpet?

Same here. Mine has the grommet. but its not the original carpet either. I remember asking around back when my car was under construction and the general consensus back then was its supposed to have the grommet
