Hey All [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Anyone know if it's at all possible to get a soft touch/stitched IPC cover? (to match the steering wheel, seats etc.)

The engine code is A14NET if it matters, thank you.

Hello everyone,
I have an Opel Astra J 2.0 cdti automatic and since I bought it (2 years ago) I’m having an issue with the instrument cluster. 
Actually it doesn’t show all the menus and never shows me messages when there’s a problem with the car, I tried to reprogram with op-com but I can’t access to it (I don’t know why) and I took it to Opel France and they told me you need to change the instrument cluster without any explanation. 

So I decide to change it and I bought a used instrument
