One of the downsides of using a smaller steering wheel is that you have limited visibility of some of your gauges.

Hi, I made some test stickers from the printing sticky paper you are talking about. I used Polyurethane in the rattle can. fog the first few coats so your ink does not run. Then some nice even coats (you could use semi-gloss). It blocks UV (UV makes the colors fade) and it is on the outside of my truck. I've washed it a few times, after it got muddy, and no lifting. Plus it has been hot here.
