Condition report:

The items are in varied condition ranging from new-old-stock to used. The used steering wheels and hubcaps show visible surface wear, dust, and oxidation to metal components (photo 3). The new-old-stock service items are contained within original cardboard packaging which exhibits significant shelf wear, including tearing, creasing, and staining (photo 2). The lighting units are used and show accumulated dust, minor surface scratches, and signs of previous fitment, including rusted mounting bolts on the headlamps (photo 4). One interior plastic trim piece shows a clear white cigarette icon but has general surface marking consistent with age (photo 4).
