Review on Enhance Your Drive with the Custom Accessories 35600 Black Genuine Leather Steering Wheel Cover featuring Woodgrain Design by Luckie Davidson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great steering wheel cover

I have a 2011 Honda Accord that already has the dashboard and wood trim. (steering wheel is already leather covered but I'm used to padded handlebars) I read the reviews here and thought the color would go really well with my car. I would like to address the steering wheel cover issues that other reviewers have discussed. 1) Color --- it WAS a bit darker than the wood texture color in my car, but it's not too far off target and still adds a pretty chic touch. The image on Amazon accurately matches the color of the actual image with an accuracy of about 90%. 2) Size ---- It was hard to hit and I figured it was either too small or I was too weak, but the handling of the hubcaps NEVER fit easily. Just take your time, be patient AND IT'S OK. I was discouraged and disappointed on my first attempt at putting it on and thought I'd return it because it doesn't fit, but honestly you just have to stretch it. I tried again by putting it on half of the wheel and then slowly putting it on the rest of the wheel. I ended up stretching it too much and it wasn't tight enough because I was pulling on it too hard. 3) Price - The price dropped just a few days after I placed my order. Revain was kind enough to refund me the difference after I politely contacted them regarding their pricing policy. It's my first time doing this and I will do it again in the future. 4) Smell ---- The case has a kind of "new car" smell and it is very strong. (I say "kinda" because it's a mix of smells - new car, motor oil, etc. - mostly it smells like you've been to a car shop.) However, it's not. bothers me too much. (By the way, the smell also fills the car for the first few days). After driving, the smell remains on the hands even after washing and does not go away for several hours. I expect the smell will go away in a few weeks. Conclusion: It's great and I'm happy with it! I ONLY give this cover 4 stars instead of 5 because the smell stays on your hands, it's a great inconvenience when you can't remove the smell, especially when you go to an important place or social event.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Pretty much everything is fine
