    I need to change my roundels too... my rear isnt as bad as my front.

    What did you do with the old rear one that was on the front? Also, where did you buy the front one from? Ive heard there are big variances in quality depending on where you get them from

    Must be US specific then. My iX had originally an airbag steering wheel but has the regular flat panel.

    Nice little update!

    I'm wondering though, what's up with the covering plate under your steering wheel?
    Why is there a bump, never seen one like that before.

    Thanks! I have updated my post above with a night shot. The screen is always illuminated, but the buttons only illuminate when you turn you on the lights.

    I will definitely post more feedback, but so far things are looking good! :D
