Hello,
My steering wheel is getting pretty beat up, but I don't want to replace with aftermarket. I know I can reupholster the leather wrap, but is there anything to do about the wear in the middle, and where the airbag is poking through the seams?
Thanks,
Sam

Ok, here are a couple pics. You can see how in the center of the steering wheel, there is a plastic piece with what looks like foam poking through. I've been looking a pictures of wheels for sale, and see that some come with the center, some don't. Is the center cover re-upholsterable also, or a separate part? Also a pic of my shift ****. I really want to retain the stock one, but they've stopped producing them. Is this something that can be re-covered?
Thanks,
Sam

can get you the center airbag unit (it is all one piece, the leather typically curls around the edges) in very nice shape for $60 plus shipping...
Pictures?
