Looking at getting my MX5 steering wheel re-trimmed with something fatter with grips

Is the quality still good?

Got one on order currently, should be delivered next week hopefully if you want to hang fire?

Can't see any reason the quality would be any worse than previously though.

I know a few people who have had theirs done recently and the quality has been excellent.

It was when I ordered a steering wheel for my M3 a few months ago. I keep meaning to order one for my Clio 200 as the OEM one is terrible!

What's the rough cost of a re-trim?

£135 for mine, thats with extra padding as the standard Z4 wheel is shocking, perforated sides and smooth nappa top and bottom.

If he has your wheel in stock, you can do it on an exchange basis where you pay £100 extra, he trims and sends out a wheel, then you return your old one and get your £100 back.

Got one very similar to that on my mx5, quality is great, now had mine on for about 2 years and still looks like new.

Looks to me like a MK3 with aftermarket double din stereo, and a gauge retrofitted to monitor something?

Pretty bad picture, but this one was done about a month ago for a friend.

Still looks completely fresh after about 2000 miles, and a lot cheaper than the M Performance wheel...

Mine was done just before Christmas, excellent quality.

This was my one. Love it.

Looks great

Got mine arriving tomorrow, so roughly a 2 week turnaround from ordering.

Will be fitted at the weekend.

Problem with very fat steering wheels is they make your wrists tired after a long drive

Yeah, they're pretty busy usually so takes a day or 2 to get back to emails, in my experience.
