Just placed an order for mine with blue stitching. Was going to order the flat bottom F Sport wheel but this should tide me over. Hopefully the blue is a good match for the F Sport shifter ****.

final product!

I agree. Mine is still holding strong. It's holding up pretty well. I think the key to snugness is to put the "wings" on the front and use the double sided tape LIBERALLY. I am going to order another one because I am OCD like that and I'm all out of string to redo my existing one Besides, its only 30 bucks and I think I got the install down pretty well. This time around I plan on using the double sided tape ALL AROUND the steering wheel.

BTW, When I redid it, the double sided tape goo came off easily and did not mar the original leather. Though I only had it on a week or two before redoing it.

It may be that the stitch is not EXACTLY like the one in the seats. other than that, I'm likling mine a lot. I do want to try to do a more clean install ( istill have a little bagginess in the bottom spoke.

Hope mine gets here soon. I'm itching to mod this car.

reporting back after installing around 2 weeks ago. I did the wings in front, tape liberally especially in the spoke areas, and there is no sagging at all, front or back of the steering wheel!

I just did the wings in front. It looks good but I definitely have air pockets at the spokes, and one wing won't tuck in completely. Rather frustrated with it, honestly. It looks great with my F Sport shift ****, but man, I just wish it would have turned out better. In some places I seemed to have excess leather, to where I was having to try to even it all out, and in other areas where one wing is, it's not long enough and won't tuck in/hide completely.

I just received my new one from the guy selling it for 29.99 and the box is much nicer. You'd think it was a fine watch or something lol. The leather and kit are the same. I will try to redo it soon. I have the next few weekends booked up so might not be for a while.

hm that is odd, perhaps it may not be positioned correctly. Its a little tricky, and not exactly 100% intuitive. I had to redo two of the spokes in order to get it to tuck in. My big spoke at the 6:00 position does not tuck in all the way in the rear but thats probably my fault from crappy stitching. Did you also use a lot of tape? Heres a pic of mine and the amt of tape used...






Seriously, i was blown away by the packaging. Everything was in nice fancy boxes. I was expecting it to come wrapped up in some plastic shopping bag.

how do you unclip this from the airbag? thanks

Take a flathead and pop the yellow cups outwards like how they are currently in that picture. Afterwards you can just pull the plug straight out. Reinstall is the opposite - plug in the clips, then push down on the yellow tabs.

Pull these two yellow clips out with a small flat head screw driver. Once they are pulled out they will detach.

yes to above, that's how you pull the plugs out, i'm glad my picture made it useful!
