    Refurbish D3/L320 Steering Wheels

    The steering wheel on my RRS is starting to get worn down on the top and could use refurbishment. I know there are companies that do this in the UK but it will mean my steering wheel being sent over there etc and will be away for a long time.

    Does anyone know of a company in Aust that can refurbish or do an exchange for these steering wheels?

    Thanks

    Are you talking about the low spec rubber version?

    The alternate leather version is light years better and long lasting. Try and find one of these.

    It is leather. (I think - certainly stitched)

    Thanks - yes I am aware of most of the UK options but was hoping for Aussie options.

    Cheers

    Thanks but just looking for people in Aust who can recover if needed.

    Though not mentioned in this thread I am also looking to get a Momo wheel recovered as well.
