I once had the whole kit installed on my first GS. At first I thought it looked good but after a while the wood started to turn to a light orange, looked cheap and like crap - but the company I ordered from replaced the whole kit at no charge and it was like almost a yr after i bought it - it was woodtrim.com

I wouldnt do the whole kit if i had to do it again, I would do only some peices like just the ashtray,radio,climate controls


Does anyone know of a place that does custom peices for the wood, I would like to get my LCD encloser done

i 100% agree on the ones around the tiptronic and some other areas but

its the way i bought it and after being in a stock Gs i just really liked it

so im going to leave it for now

Hey T.L.W bro, I want your steering wheel!!!!! Aren't you getting rid of it and doing some JP wheel?

Let's trade your steering wheel for something plus cash!

Ivan, I found another CL member who was parting out a SC. He was willing to loan his steering wheel to me in exchange for my promise to return it when done and to pay for shipping charges both ways. Seemed more than fair to me. The SC wheel will fit on the GS steering column tho the air bag is not compatible to my knowlege. Shouldn't be a problem for the short term while the work is being done. I have seen them sold on ebay also, sometimes for prices less than $75. Just keep looking around.
