I heard it's time consuming, because you have to run the lace all the way around, but should be pretty easy. Go to www.handaaccessories.com and download the pdf of the installation guide.

Takes about an hour. It's not hard, but concentrate and take your time. It comes out good if you do it right. If you miss one hole, you're gonna screw up the whole thing and have to do it over, so do it right the first time.

I bought the OEM leather steering wheel cover. The leather is extremely difficult to get around the wheel due to it's tightness. Might have just been my cover though. Stitching also did not close the gaps completely in some parts, but overall it looks sweet when you get it on (and feels nice too [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]).

Just wondering what you guys consider the best leather-wrapped steering cover for our car is and where you can buy it.
Thanks,

This was the first thing I did for my civic LX and the second was add the rear cup holder [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] The leather wrap is the ONLY one to buy because ti fits so perfect. It took me quite while to put mine on and with no prior experience I think it looks pretty good. You might spring for someone to put it on professional, but for the love of all things holy don't ask Honda because they will rape you like a convict! It will only need some leather cleaner every so often as the gunk on your hands will dull the leather's finish. Very nice feel and I've forgotten the annoying part long ago...much like the pain of a tattoo...you forget the pain quickly and enjoy the product for a long time!
