94LE-BlackEmerald Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 I searched and didn't see anything addressing this, so apologies if it has been covered before. Anyway, I have a leather-wrapped steering wheel on my 94LE Auto, and the leather is starting to crack and split. It looks like crap. I'm wondering what my options are to have it repaired/replaced. I don't really want to put an aftermarket wrap on it, the stealership wants $600+ for a new steering wheel, and I called a couple places in the area and those that will redo it want at least $300. Any suggestions? What year steering wheels will work? (I have cruise control and such on the wheel, too.) These looks pretty close: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...em=110164056276 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...em=250106428855 Any thoughts? Thanks!

GrimGreg Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Notice neither of those have a center? 96+ have airbags. Otherwise, I'm not sure which other Nissans have the same steering shaft, and the only years like yours were 94&95 for Pathfinders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need new wheel or have someone replace the leather. If you figure out how to get this done let me know since I want to fix mine as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might check corvette forum for a guy named Chuck Pelton--he used to get around $200.00 exchange for a leather wrapped C-3 wheel--I've seen his work and it looks as good as factory stuff---but being the cheapskate that I am, I went for a kit and did my own--didn't turn out too bad.

It was a WheelSkin--got it from Sparkle Auto Detail in Garden City, Ks---stitched it myself, kit comes w/waxed thread and needles--kinda tough on old fingers, though. Got a picture somewhere; I'll try to fing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hud Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Why not just a steering wheel cover? 20 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
