Review on AULLY PARK Universal Car Steering Wheel Cover Genuine Leather Stitch On Wrap (Size S Interior Accessories by James Bull

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The black medium matches my 2015 Honda Accord perfectly. Looks great and feels good when finished.

The measurements and their size chart showed a slightly larger size but the black medium fitted my 2015 Honda Accord perfectly. Including instructions, 2 needles and 2 thread sets. This is my second. The first one is still good after years of use. The instructions were sufficient but a few tips for the first timer.1. Provide adequate lighting. My normally well-lit garage lacked this. The shade of a tree on a sunny day is ideal.2. Spin the wheel for better access. For me, the work zone between 7am and 11am worked best.3. Sometimes, to get the needle through the wrong side, I had to lift the back edge of the cover, weakening the previous stitch. You can really only adjust one stitch at a time. Before tightening the current stitch, pull up the loop of the last stitch and hold it with your thumb and pull the current stitch through the front hole.4. Using more than 4 wrong stitches caused the cover to become wrinkled. The Accord has very wide needles, so I had to sew a few passes over the edge to prevent puckering. As a result, much more yarn was used than expected. I ran out about 5/6 of the way and had to tie in a second set of yarn. No real problem as the knot can be hidden under the cover.5. Feel free to leave more than six inches of yarn dangling from the hook. The problem is the eyelet that goes through the back hole and after that it's easy to pull the thread in two gauges. With each pass you have to pull less and the needle is less likely to come off the thread. It's also a good idea to apply a dab of glue to the frayed ends of the yarn and let it set before you begin so you can easily rethread the needle. If you make a wrong stitch, you need to remove the needle to open the seam.6. Most importantly, don't rush.
