swiftstu Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) Hi all, got the supe in for a respray and been looking at the tired steering wheel. The stitching has come away on the upper part so a simple sand and recolour will only do so much. I can find new covers online which stitch on, but none which go up the, erm spokes? Is that right? They all just go round the outside- will look a bit rubbish. Anyone have any ideas where to get a new one which fits like OEM? thanks Edited May 21, 2021 by swiftstu (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my mates works for a camper van builders and they use them as well as his boss who buys and sells lots of high end cars so should be very good http://royalsteeringwheels.com 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew K Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I can also highly recommend Royal Steeringwheels as I had mine re-trimmed by them and they also added some more thickness to the diameter part to make it like wheels in newer cars.

Before pics After Pics Wow- that looks amazing. Can I ask how much that cost? Did you have an option to just buy the cover, or just the retrim?

You can choose any type of leather or other material like suede etc. Edited May 22, 2021 by Andrew K (see edit history) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Yea I believe I had my TRD wheel done from Royal Steering Wheels many years ago. I think they send them off to be re-trimmed but I was happy with the outcome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I wouldn't get suede. Unless you're planning to wear gloves all the time it'll wear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Royal steering wheels did mine, Made it slightly thicker too. £135 with £10 shipping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 If using royal steering wheels, make sure you use PayPal to cover you. I used them and wouldn’t again but they do seem to have upped their game judging on the comments above.
