Looks really nice! But how does it feel? Does it protrude a lot? I really like it but don't want a clumsy thick thing on my console... unless I misunderstood how the thing attaches.

Thanks for the pix!

On the ventilated seat switches, it looks like it DOES in fact protrude quite a bit. So.... wait for LF-S?

I just want a kit that doesn't scratch up easily such as the one that comes from Lexus. Even the basic stock silver stock finish scratches very easily.

WERD! The first week I got my car it was swarmed with minor scratches. Come to find out it was from the paper towel so from there I switched to microfiber towels.
