I was not messing with the airbag & I like having it just in case. This seemed the best solution.

Thanks

Was it craft customs? I inquired about getting my wheel rewrapped but the price is almost as much as a new wheel.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I am at the mercy of the builder who is busy. Seeing as I want it assembled properly I wait.

Hopefully this week it will go together and next week in.

The 2011 Kenwoods are compatible with the dongle that feeds that gauge. I just bought the freaking 2010 version. F*ck that.

I wanted the nav in the upper cubby, this way I have it & the gauge up there for a hell of a lot less & the cubby is still available & I can use the new garmin anywhere.
