99827, Custom leather steeringwheel cover?
Posted by 95RS_oversees, Oct-18-07 10:30 AM
Anyone know good places for leather wheel cover, the ones that really fits the wheel, not like the easy general covers? Does anyone have them/pics?

If its really "custom: you won't be able to find it online. My local auto upholstery shop will do it, but you have to take them the car, or steering wheel, and they'll wrap it in leather, it looks exactly like those in cars that came with them from factory.

thanks

I couldn't find any place online that will actually install it for you, but this place sells you the "wrapper" and you have to put it on, looks good: http://www.wheelskins.com/index.php

Thanks for the tip. Will it still look good even around the 4 points of the wheel?
I am thinking of just plain black leather (silver eclipse), but if anyone has a nice suggestion w/pics, let me know.

If you want it to look good, take it to a local upolstry place. I am sure they will quote you reasonably, and you can pick the leather. My probe had a suade steering wheel, it was nice.
