If you want a "direct swap" steering wheel with a superior leather wrap (in terms of quality vs Contour, Cougar leather wrap does not turn to mush over time) get a 99-00 Cougar one.
Except those cruise control buttons are retarded. Definitely designed for women or something

Boooo, I'm pretty familiar with the 99-00 wheels, I have a cougar as well and just picked up a wheel with cruise as the car wasn't originally equipped with it.
