I noticed you have an a/c under dash unit like I do. I don't believe you can use the panels because of the under dash unit.

So do you mean i will not be able to add any cover under the steering wheel, since all wires are visible.

You should be able to use the panel that goes on the driver's side, I think.

I used the template in the tech manual for the driver side and it was not usable with my under dash a/c unit. The passenger side template did not fit at all.
