The 20 min timeline also gets blown if you have one (like mine) that decided it did not want to come off without a steering wheel puller and, at least on my 06, there were no threaded holes for the puller to be screwed in so had to improvise. But turned out great, just not in 20 minutes

Looks better...not sure $40 for a suede sticker is a good deal but something tells me, they have a lock on that product market.

There is a guy on Facebook (website also) who makes sticker to cover all the factory stickers for almost half that price. These are his on my C7ZR1.
