"Gallery Series package dresses up LE models with 2-tone paint and cloth interior, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob, and assorted other trim items. "

An actual TMC based package, came out with the 4.5, like said before, they are two-toned. Now it is the Limited Edition for the 5 Gen not to be confused with the LE. Does anybody know what the Limited Edition Champagne Pearl badging look like?

The leather steering wheel and shift knob you can grab from any leather equipped Camry or Solara.
the Sage interior was not available with leather... so no leather steering wheel or shift knob avail in any other camry besides the Gallery Series... the Chrome interior handles id like too. the carbon fiber console is what i also want.

Is Sage the medium gray or the brownish tan?
I know both of those colors were available in leather, although the medium gray is extremely rare. Most leather package cars came in the tan. However, it does exist. Another route you can go, if the color is medium gray, is to look for an ES300 steering wheel -- many more ES300's came in the gray leather shade so it'll be easier to find the steering wheel.
If you have the medium gray interior, there are leather-equipped Solara's with black steering wheels and black shift knobs that match pretty well.

There are plenty of aftermarket companies that make C/F pieces for the Camry.

My car interior is grey so you need the tell them the color code for your car to get the correct door bezel. You can ask people at toyotapart4u or Toyotaguys that where I got mine. I didn't get the carbon fiber console because it was too expensive, aftermarket is much cheaper. Good luck.
the c/f pieces in the gallery series are molded... they are full replacements for stock.... meaning they are not just stickers.... thats why i want the real thing.

according to toyota... the sage interior(available with Antique sage pearl only) was not available in leather at all.. from the factory.
Yes, i know the lexus has the same wheel.. but thats hard to find as well. (for cheap)
