Gen 1 -- How to Steering wheel Cover -- Price vs Quality

[HarveyCat]

I need a simple wheel cover (OEM like) -- I would like leather (tan or brown) or leather like -- I know $40 is common -- would like $20 better. Open to any advice (links to ebay, amazon or other sellers) -- I just bought one for just under $5 total from China -- (I know!) -- but listing said it was leather and I was going to sew/stitch it on -- but somehow my cm to inch conversions were off -- I can't even get it on the wheel!

I bought a Realtree camo cover at O'Reilly on sale for $11. Fits my needs. Planning on getting the Realtree seat covers to match. Leather seats are super cold at -30 degrees, I can only imagine how hot they are at 85 degrees.

That's something where you get what you pay for. I have had Wheelskins on my last couple of trucks. They fit right, feel great and last.

Agree, but.... it's all in how much patience you have to lace it up neatly. You can make or break the final product with your sewing skills.

Thanks for all the info everyone -- I can get a great deal on a Wheelskin $20 total -- but it is size A 14.5" to 16.5" (not AXX or some such) would it work? What size really works best? their website says AXX for our Gen 1 Expeditions.
