toy_toronto, congrats! Looks good, and your Yaris is a bit cleaner than mine. Mine needs a bath big time!

Oh, and your picture inspired me to finish the other side of my debadge! No more "Yaris"; smooth as a baby's bottom!

Revsson, the steering wheel was surprisingly easy to pull off, and the only big issue I had was getting the original stalk off. The main difficulty was that I was going about it with kid gloves. Finally, I said "to hell with this" and gave it a good tug with one hand while the other was holding the metal retaining clap open with pliers in the other.

Seriously, slow and steady, and it's pretty simple to do. I took my sweet time and the whole thing took maybe 3 hours, if that. But, I did have some help from CTScott! Video Help!
