Default GS Steering Wheel caps...thoughts?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-00...QQcmdZViewItem

Anyone have any experience with these? My wheel is getting pretty worn.

Thoughts?

Also, does this "cap" cover the wheel completely? Does it feel like wood or like plastic? Has anyone seen these inside a vehicle and/or found an online place that sells them?

Does it only cover up the front of the steering wheel or is there a second piece that snaps onto the back of it?

Looks like a inexpensive mod instead of the 400.00 dollars real wood wheel...

No way. Go with Wheelskins leather cover. You need to sew it on, but it's pretty easy. Can get it on ebay.
