It would totally obscure my gauge cluster the way it is. That probably has to do with my car being a sports car, i sit so low that i see the gauge cluster through the steering wheel, but i imagine that in something like an SUV you might be able to see the gauges over the wheel? I forget now how other cars are...
But my real concern would be how it sounds when you're turning, and the top of the wheel is now in your lap instead of in front of you... Might be annoying if you're on a windy road or making lots of turns in the city... -Taylor
