I changed mine the other day. Disconnect battery for 10 minutes for airbag to discharge or something (I did another small job while waiting) then loosen 2 torx screws at rear of wheel. Lift airbag out. One big torx screw (t45 i think ) in centre of wheel. Loosen about half way, clout wheel on back at both sides with palm of hand til its loose, , finish undo big torx and lift off. Easy as

no point in having another screen in the glove box imo but if you have it already!?
speedo surround... you can remove the 3 bolts that hold up the steering column in place and its easy from there, no need to remove s/wheel! thats how i did my blue dials! Interiour looks a fresher now!
EDIT : Who sprayed your rocker cover again?

just seen this on the for sale section if your still considering VTS alloys... £180 posted, that aint too bad!
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=213104
Do you get mates rates for getting stuff sprayed? I can do it myself but takes ages to do properly with rattle cans! I wanna get my rocker cover done in a color or polished to a chrome finish

I tired that but it just didnt look like it would come out as a clip would have to be broken, might give it a wiggle later.
