Steering wheel cover

Postby adamskii33 » Thu Oct 08, 2020 9:50 am

Hello all, my apologies if this has been covered before but I thought I would share my experience on fitting a leather steering wheel cover last night, I would highly recommend it, the job took about 1.5 hours tops. Its a bit of a fiddle but well worth it. Here are a few pics of before, during and after, massive difference for £16.99 delivered. Its not 100% perfect but that was more due to having to hold a torch while doing it myself as I ran out of light. I'm very happy and it feels nice as it make the wheel feel a bit fatter too.

Ebay 16.99 no didnt have to stretch it, its a snug fit to pull over the wheel, its a bit time consuming, watch a couple of vids on YouTube for fitting tips and away you go

That Steering wheel now looks good. Your slippers dont look bad either. :shock:
Ford Transit 280 SWB,,Year 2008,,2.2,, If it can,t be fixed/repaired/ with a 4 pound lump hammer then it must be an electrical problem.
