Could someone post a close up of the area to the right of the steering wheel (i.e. toward the passenger side)? I had to get some work done several days ago and since then it seems like there is a 1 cm+ gap between the wood trim and the steering wheel collar/seal. Maybe it was always there and maybe it's totally normal, but it looks a lot tighter on the left side.

Just curious if anyone else has this gap or if I should go back and ask to get it tightened up, assuming that's possible.

I had to have the Forward Collision Warning sensor replaced. I'm not sure why they had to go in by the steering column, but I'll assume they had to.

The left side looks pretty tight, much like in the pictures provided by Cherodude (thanks, btw!), but the right side has a pretty noticeable gap, so much so that I can see the thickness of the wood trim.

I'm hoping they didn't damage either the collar or the trim, which is why it's not fitting snug any more.

This is what passes for "quality work" at my dealership:








I know this isn't a huge thing but when it's such a quality vehicle - and overall it really is - to have stuff like this showing up because of service work...! I've had this vehicle about 6 weeks and this will be 4th time it's had to go in.

:mad:

I can't tell either from looking at it or looking at a PDF I found that showed how to remove the trim in the area just how the two collar around the steering wheel is attached. I'm hoping it's not a case that once it's removed post-factory the pieces will never fit together as tight or without a gap.

just as a follow up there definitely wasn't a gap where your pics show one next to the steering column. Looks like the dealer didn't put things back together properly.
