Very good job, they look beautiful! I will be ordering my soon!

Also, I have the aluminum brushed interior trim, which one will match better, Brushed aluminum or the OEM silver colour?

I'm guessing the brushed aluminum, however you guys would know better than I do since you have tested the product.


Thanks,
Sandy

I believe if you have OEM brushed aluminum interior trim, than the standard brushed aluminum finish will be the best match.

Hello, I am trying to order from your website, but it keeps telling me
United Parcel Service
111286: AE is not a valid state for the specified shipment.

I am US military stationed in Germany and have verified my address 3 times (09104). Any help would be appreciated.

Just to clarify, you dont have to disconnect the airbag, just pop it out right?

That's correct. We still highly recommend disconnecting the battery to avoid any issues with the SRS/AIRBAG light.

Ok, so I ordered this product and it hasn't reached yet. However, I went to my car today and looked at the steering wheel, and it seems that I do NOT have the clips that remove the airbag covers.

This is the hole that is shown in the DIY:

This is the side of my steering wheel:





**The two other holes you see are screws and not clips

Am I missing something here guys? I would appreciate your help.

The two slits are definitely there, just a bit hard to locate, depends on the light conditions etc..a flashlight will help, also try to use your figure to feel them.

I had the same problem. It took me 20 mins. You have to feel around for the slits. They are covered under the material around the wheel. You actually have to puncture through the material with your screwdriver to pop off the airbag. Heres an attached pic of your pic, Ive circled the slit. Its that dimple there. Just close your eyes and believe me its behind there.
