Mtec Steering Wheel Cover Issues

bigdaddycane · 08-24-2011, 08:59 AM

I bought an Mtec steering wheel slightly used and in very good condition, but now the material on the cover is peeling off in one corner. I saw this on my factory sport steering wheel, but did not expect this to happen so fast on the Mtec wheel.

Any ideas on what would be a suitable wrap/cover to replace the (whole) cover in? I have CF wrap trim, but do NOT want to go that route on the steering wheel cover; too much area and don't like the look.

Some novillo leather would look pretty nice, but you can just get a new cover from Tischer.

Nice idea, where would you source novillo leather from?

new cover is $110 right?

Yeah it looks like 65-110 depending on the option you go with. You could look around for a used one too. As for the leather I am not too sure. I might do some looking myself so I can wrap some parts on my truck.

Used ones are hard to find....might just have to bite the bullet and get a new one.

Let me know if you get the leather for your truck. Where and how much. Thanks
