Leather Steering Wheel and seat covers

Postby honeybravo » Mon Jan 21, 2013 10:51 pm

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me from where to buy a leather steering wheel cover for ES and if there is a package with leather seat covers?
Looking for a good product and the Seller/Weblink deatils?

Thanks.

I could not find any links for leather steering wheel cover, there is some information for seat covers though, but that is not for leather covers (looking for full seat covers for ES). Any help much appreciated.

Leather seat covers are available from our sponsor X-Factor.
Perhaps you need to look harder on this site.

There are NO GOOD leather steering wheel covers as they will never allow the wheel to be wrapped completely.
You will need to disconnect your steering wheel and bring it to a automotive leather to re-upholster.

I know I've said this before, so search harder...

But I had a wheel wrapped at All Car Interiors at Windsor, no complaints.

Lee Brothers at Albion is also very highly regarded.

Sounds like you want to put a leather cover over your seat (is that a thing?) as opposed to getting a proper leather interior? Unless your ES is old, you will have side airbags that will need to come out from somewhere, which is why factory seat covers to not cover the bolsters.

You can get a full leather interior from Lee Brothers for only a couple of grand - we used to get them done for customers on new cars.

Wow, Thanks for the link. That looks pretty good. Though, I think looking for a second hand steering wheel from the wreakers might be a good option also.

I have searched out a brand called wheelskins who make leather steering wheel covers in USA from cow hide. I have ordered one from a reseller on ebay. I think this is the best product.
