Trust me, dont waste your time. Folks like that will worry next about your full metal dash being a safety hazard, or the brakes, and dont even tell them about the single point of failure Master Cylinder!!. You going to child proof your entire car because these Nervous Nellies are Scaredy Cats?? I had a co worker once who rode with me every other day back and forth to work. I have full harness seat belts, brand new tires, AND front disk brakes w/stainless steel brake lines on my 89 Accord, with only 120k miles on her, but the limited padded dash just freaked him out to a point he wouldnt ride in my car any more so I told him to F off.... but this IS your Wife, so what the hell do I know? Happy Wife, Happy Life... lol....
Just tell her it is the way it is. "You wont let me buy a Motorcycle, so if u dont feel safe, Ill just drive it by myself then, but please try and understand, I need some risk once a while in my life in order to feel alive....Im a MAN after all, so have fun @ your Book Party, Dear... " :)
