I saw your post about your steering wheel.

How hard was it to modify to fit the steering wheel?

What would you charge me to do mine?

Thanks,

Tim

Im not sure which post you read, but I havent changed out my steering wheel. I have the stock steering wheel I just wrapped it in leather to match the rest of my interior... it makes for a cool change that looks good but keeps the airbag functional. I could do yours for you if you want, I believe the leather kit is about $20, and for labor, Ill charge you a case of Dr. Pepper?:D

Yea, I'm talking about the gray leather wrap.

Only a case of DP, well I think your getting the short in of the deal. I'd like to see it in person just to be sure, but by the pictures, it looked pretty good.

PM me and we can hook up.

BTW - I saw you about a month ago out on the service road at Park and 75.

yea, I live right there at park/custer - do you live around there?

the options on the leather kit are basically whatever Pep Boys or Autozone has in stock, hehe:D honestly, thats where I got mine, and it has worked well for about 2 years now. I could cut you some better leather, but it will cost more and its not really necessary. I believe they carry both gray and tan, and perforated and non-perforated. its really not that hard to do, thats why said a case of DP. I usually charge $60 to wrap them including materials, but I try to cut deals for my FSC brethren:read: :D

Not, too far from there - Josey and Hebron.

I work over by Park and Jupiter.

Cool, I'm thinking non-perforated gray.

Tim you got any pics. I drive through that intersection twice a day on my way to and from work. I've probably seen your truck before and never known it.
