I recently fitted a new steering wheel to my L322 (the original was getting a bit ratty). It is a delight to hold a new one, a bit like driving a new car!

Rather than send the old one back to the UK I opted to pay the extra deposit money and keep it.

That being the case I now have a spare one to use as an "exchange" steering wheel if someone needs to get theirs recovered. Either having mine recovered and then keeping yours, or using mine while yours is done. I am pretty easy either way, I just thought I would put the offer out there for anybody else thinking of getting a steering wheel retrim done.

Hi BigJon was your leather broken? if it just discoloured then there are kits to re dye and re surface the leather.

Where did you get yours from?

Mario, the surface was falling apart around the right hand top quarter, where it is gripped the most.

I bought it off ebay from powerful UK.

A generous offer Bigjon and an embodiment of the AULRO community spirit. :BigThumb:

Mine was starting to show signs of sun damage. I wiped it with metho, gave the top a touch up with a spray can and coated it with plastic clear.
