Tech1 wheel

[Baz666]

Other than getting one re-leathered as one one found an easyer methered to cleaning up a leather stering wheel.

also what are the 2 sizes on a tech1 wheel ??

[skipunda]

Sizes: 370mm, 385mm

[Baz666]

Well that makes me a very happy man then as i just got a tech1 of eBay for £10 and it measures 370mm, but really needs a clean up.

[skipunda]

Wouldn't like to advise on something I haven't done but I guess a leather feed and a meguiars leather clean. The leather clean was very good on my motorsport grey interior.

Good purchase by the way! You can tell the difference visibly between the two wheels just by looking at them. There will be no recess gap between the leather and plastic on the smaller.

to be fair if they're worn, any amount of feeder is going to make it spongy and not how leather should be.

Have it recovered in alacantara!

Good point and not something I'd considered

[Baz666]

I`v just been on the phone to 3 places in ipswich and not one of them with touch a bloody stering wheel.

I would like to get both wheels done as i now have a tech1 and 2 in 370mm.

[Barx325i]

I always thought a retrim will never look as good as original where as alacantara is more forgiving, I guess would be a better overall job & they're the nuts..

Try a Saddlery for getting it recovered Baz, it works out cheaper sometimes.

[Baz666]

do you know of a place that do it tho, ata the same time i just contacted this place and they will do a wheel in a good quilty leather £140+vat a wheel.
