Review on Bell Automotive 22 1 53212 1 Universal Steering by Phil Show

Revainrating 5 out of 5

You have to be patient and work hard, but the result is excellent!

product description was very honest. The cover took quite a long time to install, but it looks good and fits my 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD off-road perfectly. My truck is Barcelona Red Metallic and the pattern goes well with the decor. I live in Arizona and a steering wheel cover, especially a black or other dark colored steering wheel, is essential. I used 6 inch zippers and a scratch resistant pry bar to install the lid. I attached a zip tie to the very top of the wheel, slowly pulled the cover up either side and placed the zip tie over the radial arms to hold them in place, leaving the cover on the wheel in the hot car. About every hour after being exposed to the heat in the closed truck, I would come back and pull the cover further along the wheel and close it. After about four sessions I finally got to the last quarter of the wheel. I used a pry bar covered in washcloth to pull the cover all the way around the wheel and it snapped firmly into place. I left it on the bike for a couple of hours in a hot car, removed the zip ties and massaged the cover into its final position. I look great! I parked the truck on foot in the desert today and had no problems with the overheated steering wheel when I came back two hours later. I definitely recommend this product.
