can buy them at Renault:

full blue leather from RSi - £350

172 or V6 - £400

any wer other than renault?

bit too expensive for a steering wheel

Find a local upholsterer and get it retrimmed. A guy who reupholsters classic bentlys and racing cars is doing mine for £50

 

[MikeyK18]

that sounds like a better idea, r u gettin ur's retrimmed in the same suede or in leather?

No one round here will touch a steering wheel re-trim with a sh1tty stick. Apparently its a right chore. If your guy says he'll do it, take his arm off!!!:rasp:
