Review on AULLY PARK Universal Car Steering Wheel Cover Genuine Leather Stitch On Wrap (Size M by Troy Gerhardt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A little loose in places but good leather

Size M, black leather, 2001 VW Eurovan. I've been on the bike for a few months now and it still feels great. I highly recommend using black WAXED thread for this instead of the thread provided. I believe the wax will cause the thread to stay taut as you tighten the stitch. It would be a lot easier to sew this. On my Eurovan the upholstery is perfect in many places but a little loose about 20% causing the seams to be a bit ruffled. So I'm deducting a star because it means the width of this cover was a bit uneven. You can feel the traffic jam at these places and it takes some time to get used to it and to be able to ignore it. Because of that, you want this cover to be a bit too small, not too big, by all means. Next time I'll probably make it smaller. The skin will stretch a little, but if it's too loose, it will always be too loose. I would also probably use a full cross stitch pattern instead of a baseball V stitch like I did. I think it could have minimized the formation of bumps. It took me a full 3 hours to put this thing on. But it's worth it, as it's a lot more stylish than a lot of the cheap overhead wheel covers.

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Overall good but...
