does the wood around the guages just fit flush, or around the bevel of the guages as well?

Awesome. Enjoy your new toy.

How did you mount your phone? Good spot for it.

There's a slight gap but it's not noticable from far. I think its still a good addition. here's a pic.

Here's a pic of the metal piece that goes on the phone. It's small so you don't have to carry anything big attachment.

can you teach me?

Hi Deeznuts,
Was it hard to install the steering wheel, how long does it take, do you have to disasamble the air bag, can you describe the procedure. I am thinking about getting it for my TL-S from Tim since it's $150 cheaper right now.
Thanks,
-A

Odyssey Wood Wheel on TL?

Do you guys know if the Odyssey Wood steering wheel will fit a '99 TL??? They have audio controls too, right?

Thanks!

Oh, I see, so it doesn't go around the inside ring around the guages. Thanks a lot, Think the black wood kit will look good on my car, thanks again for your detailed pics.

NTW: Whats up with the easy to scratch plastic surfaces in the TL? You think they would use better material around switches where you can scratch them.

If you really want a tan steering wheel, you might want to post in the For Sale/Wanted forum..

It's not they don't want to sell it.. but probably just that not many people have upgraded to the wood one.. I suggest going to a place that has totaled TLs and see if you can get a wheel from there..
