Easier to find one second hand cheap as they can be pretty expensive. Try looking for suzuki sierra as well as samurai. 413s may be the same also??
Otherwise I've seen em for around 80 bucks.

Sj410, 413, samurai, swift, vitara (early ones anyway) all have the same spline, ie you can interchange the steerings wheels, I have run swift gti wheels on my past 410/413s and used a 410 to move a vitara round i had. Try expanding your search to incluce swift and vitara/escudo.

ive got a vitara steering wheel in my zuk. looks stock as , horn works and it is quite bit smaller in diameter than the 413 wheel and has a nicer feel.

main problem i seen using a boss kit was that it was going to push the steering wheel out another 50mm into the cab , where space is tight all ready.

If you already have a steering wheel you want to fit.......I saw this guy on trade me when I was looking for the safari, a bit on the expensive side but just another option.

I've bought a couple of new ones at around $80 and found a second-hand on Trademe.

Aftermarket wheels usually don't sit much higher in the Vitaras as the mount face is not recessed anywhere near as deep as the mounting surface on a factory 'zuk wheel.
