Hi there listers,
Has anybody out there actually restitched the leather on their steering
wheel themselves?
I love my steering wheel very, very much. And now that the spokes are all
polished-it's
gorgeous! I had the leather filled in the bad places and resprayed, and it
looked good for
a couple of weeks. But, it was just too far gone even at that point. Other
than settle for a
new steering wheel-which I can neither afford at this point-or even *want*
(I really like
the one I have-it's original)-I can have the leather restitched.
However, no one I know wants to take on that job-from what I understand,
it's not a very fun job.
And the one who will do it wants as much as a new wheel to do it!
I'm not too bad with a needle, but I've never done leather-where would I
look for leather? What
would be the proper type? Where would I start-literally and figuratively?
Any input, anybody?
TIA,
Laura G.
