I think the steering wheel is ace, I think the orange dash is, well, perhaps an aquired taste?

Love the steering wheel - it's amazing the difference nice contact points (seats, gearknob, steering wheel) can make to driving enjoyment.

Does the orange tie into a theme on the van? If so then I can see the point of it. I've got two-tone yellow and black leather seats in my car (looks far better than it sounds) but it's OK as it ties in with the dash panel and doorcards. They'd be horrific by themself though.

How are you going to get the airbag light off?  (1st pic off, 2nd pic on!)
Oh, and it looks like you have a bulb out somewhere....

The airbag light would be my concern if changing my wheel , was wondering of it was that easy .
 
There was a thread here a while ago about a smart multi function wheel for the T5 ,
my bigest fear is that when I die the missus will sell my toys for what I said I paid for them
