1998 C180 W202
interior upgrades

So I've purchased a 1998 C180 W202 and was looking to do sum interior upgrades. I've already put in visors with lights.
1 I was looking at the white dash clocks as I have the black ones, I prusume it's a straight swap just curious would I have to reset the millage or would it stay the same?
2nd is there another steering wheel I can put in this model or is it too much hassle?
Thanks in advance

Steering wheels are about $350.00 on line, and about 30 minutes to change. Check YouTube as there are a couple of videos.
Going to the white from black is simple, as long as you see how the dash is removed. Nothing will change as far as miles etc are concerned.

Thanks for the quick reply. I replaced the clocks in my 04 C5 coz the rev needles stoped working & it was a straight swap, so hopefully won't coz my to much trouble.
As with the steering wheel I was lookin @ a wheel from a W203 (Will it fit?) As it is a bit smaller, I feel the original one in the W202 is massive. N my W202 dosent have an adjustable steering column.

Yes, it is a big wheel, but part of it is safety related when the air bag deploys.
Not sure is another W series will fit.
