   Installing a bigger steering wheel (the non PS Vanagon version) is
a Stupid Westy Trick that I've tried.


   The bottom of the 'screen isn't eclipsed, but the SAT NAV on top of
the instrument binnacle is, slightly.  I kind of enjoy the Ralph
Kramden & look feel of the thing, but it won't work for you if you've
got fat thighs.


  Can no longer twist & slide to exit.  Workaround is pretty much
slide, then twist.
