    Do any of you have step by step instructions for the baseball stitch using 2 needles? Searched the web but no instructions, nor on YouTube.
    Thanks much

    I got mine from a guy in the UK, and I really like it, went on with no real effort and they have a great selection.. Found him on Ebay - items in Mr Steering store on eBay!
    Here is what it looks like installed, next time I would go with Black, this is the dark gray.. It feels great. S_Wheel-cover.jpg

    Yea he supplies the needle and thread, its pretty easy after the first couple stitches, and it does not go through the actual leather, but through the existing threading. Feels 100% better than the stock steering wheel..

    This sounds like a brilliant idea. How well has it held up over the last 3 years?

    This looks nice considering it's really a minimal effort and price. Thanks for digging it up and giving me such a good idea.
