Interior upgrades
Looking for interior upgrades for my C6. So far: DS Vettes center console, armrests, shift boot, console base, "porkchop" (all great), imitation carbon center dash (not bad), real carbon steering wheel spokes (pricey!). Anyone have a better looking center cap for the steering wheel? This one looks like it came from a gumball machine!

[QUOTE=mpuzach;1584267544]A few ideas for you:
Button pods

Where did you get the button pods, please? Had to get the whole
cluster, right?

[QUOTE=vet55;1584267844]They're from DS Vettes. No need to get the whole cluster; they simply cover the plastic pods in stitched leather. The pod assembly is easily removed from the dash. You remove (and re-use) the button assemblies; they just screw into the inside of the pods.

Thx for the quick response. So just the corners
without the surround, from DSV. But not overlays,
right?
Sorry for the hijack.

Yeah, well...a lot of people have criticized the 2005 steering wheel over the years. I for one am perfectly OK with it; in fact, I've always liked the fact that if nothing else, it was unique to the Corvette. The DSV version looks fine to me and it feels great in my hands.

Seat upgrades!
1. Reach under your seat... the wire suspension has probably destroyed the seat bottom foam on your '07. I think new foam is under $100 -- shop for best price from forum vendors GMPartshouse.com or Partstaxi.com.
2. Improve support & protect your new foam:

3. Custom seat upholstery kits, conversion to 2012 seats. Lots of discussion threads, like these:
