***Custom*** Flat top/bottom steering wheel

We had a customer that wanted something a bit different and wanted a flat top and bottom steering wheel. It came out great in my opinion. What do y'all think?

That is a beautiful wheel.
If I want to get the core wheel credit. Will you ship a completed wheel and credit $300 on return of the original wheel? If so I am very interested.
How long after order to receive the new wheel?
Thanks

Steven,
Nice wheel. How difficult was the de/install of the steering wheels. Did the new wheel come with detailed instructions?
Thanks

Once you receive your new wheel and as soon as we get your old wheel you'll be credited the 300

We rush the ones that send in their wheel but as for core's it could be upward of 8 weeks. Cores are in very short supply.

Install instructions I made:

First disconnect one side of the battery on the rear passenger area.


verify that you have no power


If you look on the bottom side of steering wheel around the 4 and 6 o clock position you'll see 2 small holes. Use a small flat head screw driver in those small holes to release the air bag. (spring loaded)


Once those are released you can pull out the air bag and disconnect the harnesses on the back. NOTE: On the 2 air bag plugs you only need to pull out the locking pins around 1/4 inches


once you have the air bag off and harnesses disconnected you'll need to take the screw out holding the steering wheel in place. I believe it's a T45 or T50 screw. (It's large and I think it's the larger one).


Once you have the screw off the steering wheel should come off by tapping at the 12/6/3 and 9 o'clock position until the wheel comes loose.


Once you get the wheel off use a piece of painters tape or whatever you have to hold the clock spring in place (that is the thing that the harness plugged into and rotates.


Now that you have the wheel off you can remove all of the parts from your old wheel and put it on the new wheel.


Once that is done you can put the wheel back on. NOTE: Make sure that the Horn harness plug (black) goes into the slot around the 10 o'clock position on the steering wheel otherwise you can damage the plug.

Andrew,
Thanks for the info. If I can send in the core, what is your estimate to deliver the new wheel? Deep in winter in New England but My car will finally hit the road the end of March and after 4 months in the garage I don't want to loose a several weeks or more of driving.

if you send yours in we can do a rush so theres little down time. I think if you sent in by the end of week you'd have it before end of march easy.
