Best product or technique for restoring my steering wheel
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have a 2004 75 facelift with the regular leather steering wheel. See pic.

After nearly 17 years and 300,000 miles the wheel is looking in a poor condition.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a suitable product to restore the condition of the wheel?

I had a similar problem, and covered mine with a quality leather 'glove', the kind that is stitched all the way round to give a lovely finish. that was 5 years ago and it looks as new anf feels lovely, it is made of fine grain Italian leather, just wipe it over with a good leather conditioner once in a while and it will look and feel great.

Do you have a link to the product for sale and photos of the finished job?

Is the stitching easy to do?

I have used the stuff an the e bay link. Worked well but follow the instruction to dab the stuff on as it avoids streaks. It was part of my ongoing education in the college of Rover 75ery when I followed instructions how to remove the steering wheel!
