I just looked up a video on how to do it , got the supplies and just started at it. It's trial and error but in the end you'll make something off it

I'm also searching for place to do leather wrapping and stitching for car. Anyone got good recommendations? Prefer them not to take out the steering wheel

[alpharitto]

Reason ppl don't want to do it is becoz the stitching is too labour intensive. 3-4 hrs is needed to do just one steering wheel. To them it's not cost effective. If the steering wheel is needed to be removed to shove part of the leather in hard to reach places they lagi won't do.

 

Either you buy from taobao or aliexpress and DIY stitching or

just buy a cover and get it over with.

 

Anyway a lot of ppl can't even do the cover also. LoL...

If you hear ppl say the cover is shifting about means they bought an oversize wan. Fitting one will be quite stiff and difficult to install. Use a measuring tape to measure the wheel diameter and buy according to size. The trick is to heat and soften the cover. When you stop the car chuck the cover into the engine bay and cover it for about 15-20 mins and let the heat soften it. Wear gloves and start putting the cover over the wheel. Once it's soften it's easy to install and adjust. Once done switch on the engine and aircon and let it cool.

 

Removing it is the same. Park your car in the hot sun to soften the cover.

Down time too many days liao. Need the car for work

Btw, it takes about 2.5 hrs for bro Wheelskinz to weave his magic into your new leather wrap for <200 nia and he can do it on site for tens of dollars more so that you can watch your movie and get it done by the time the movie ends.
