Re: steering wheel

Idk how much it would be for the leather one, but probably more expensive than if you went with an aftermarket steering wheel. I would also look around at your local reupholstery shops if you know of one that does quality work

www.amazon.com

look for a wheelskins steering wheel cover. You actually lace it around the steering wheel. It's leather and once installed, looks like it came from the factory that way. I put one on my 4th gen and it looks great. I'm going to put one on my stang soon.

I put the link for www.amazon.com within my post

anyway, you can go to www.wheelskins.com and see that they want $50 for the solid color plus shipping.There you can find your size and style that you want.

Next, you will probably go to www.ebay.com and find it for $45 with an extra $20 in shipping so it will cost $65

Finally, you'll go to www.amazon.com and look for wheelskins and find it for $40- $45 with FREE SHIPPING and you'll buy it .

Even if it's $45 you can't beat the price and the quality is top notch. It's good leather and you need a heavy duty needle to lace the thread that comes with it.

If the center of your wheel is in good shape, and it's just the ring that has issues, then wheelskins is the way to go. It looks like it came from the factory that way.

Looks like quality work. Not sure of the cost though.

Re: steering wheel

Whats that place gonna charge you?
Pelton is one of the most reasonable priced places that ive looked into.Plus he also refinishes the steering wheel itself.Besides replacing the foam,liner & leather.
