    Wheelskins steering wheel cover kit

    If anyone has installed this in their MM, please post up some pics. Am thinking about pulling the trigger and buying a kit, but would like to see it installed first and get feedback on how it looks, any issues with installation, and if it's good stuff or cheap crap. Thanks.

    Thanks for posting pics...are those LEDs lighting up your interior? If so, what kind/brand?

    I installed one of steering wheel covers in a different car and I loved it. It does make the wheel feel larger and takes a while to get used to. Install trick is to have a cold beverage and park in shade -cool place because it takes a while. Plan your thread direction and make sure your etches are uniform in gap, direction, and gather or "pull." At first you are inclined NOT to suture tight enough, so... Use a methodology to create a similiar "pull." I counted 1,2, 3..." Each time. If you see that three stitches back is misaligned, undo and fix it. The directions don't explain this clearly, but the uniform "pull" or gather, is just as important as directional thread alignment. Mine came out extremely well and I really liked it.
