Did I install the steering wheel correctly? *Pic attached*
I took off the steering wheel to install a steering wheel leather wrap. But I'm not completely sure if I put it back properly since it feels a little bit looser. I can't recall if there was a gap.
Anyways, I also attached a picture of the finished product.

smokyis350, you did a good job with the cover. I spent 3 hours stitching mine and it came out like crap with parts not sticking in place. Looked so bad, I just went ahead and bought a new wheel off eBay.
Gville, just follow Sewell's video. I watched it and got it done it under 20 minutes in freezing weather in my garage. Here's the result!

That steering wheel looks much sicker than mine. How much did you pay?
I think it is a 10 minute job to remove the steering wheel. First, disconnect the battery (10mm) socket. Then pop off the 2 covers on each side and loosen 2 T-30 torx screw on each side. Then get a flat head screw driver and pop out the air bag plugs. Use a 19mm socket to remove the steering wheel bolt. That's it.
