i just got a leather and wood sterring wheel for my 06 e350, i was wondering if anyone has installed one themselves and if it is a difficult job, if so maybe someone can send me some detailed instructions, any help would be great

Nice upgrade! I love the wood wheel. It feels great in your hands.

I'd like to do this too. Price?

I also see the wood and leather "wraps" on eBay. Anybody know anything about those?

I like it. The leather doesn't quite match but I bet the black is probably closer. Thanks for posting that picture.

Thanks for posting that picture.
Found the pic on ebay, a guy is selling his 2004 wagon.

Interestingly enough, in addition to the fake wood steering wheel, he also installed fake badges on the rear of his 2 wheel drive E-320 Wagon: E350 and 4-Matic:

Nice car but why label it something it is not...?
