I hear you about temperature extremes. I've lived in Texas most of my life where extremes range from low teens or single digits to over 100 on occasion. Plastic parts just won't hold together long with these changes in temp. I have never had my truck in a garage or storage and so far the steering wheel has held up fairly well. I suspect the cover has helped more than anything.

Take some pics of your progress and let us know how it goes.
