Default great work!
Did you do the steering wheel yourself???? I am afraid to tackle that one. Also, could you post a closeup of the radio *****? I am on the fence for chrome or brushed...yours would really help me decide...thanks!

No, I had a local dealer put the steering wheel on. It only took about 40 min. and $40.00.
