How To Transform Your Steering Wheel | East Detailing Steering Wheel Cover

Today I show you how to transform your steering wheel at home, with a custom alcantera, suede, leather or vinyl wrap. This project was done using an East Detailing Steering Wheel Wrap, and will make it so you need NO previous upholstery or wheel wrap experience.

Note, their ship times are not extremely fast since these are custom covers made to order. Fitment, at least for the Miata wheel cover, was near perfect!
Steering wheel covers like this one from East Detailing are great, because they do the most difficult upholstery work. They send you a custom made wrap, with your choice of colors and materials, and you just need to stitch it up. This is MUCH easier than starting from scratch to make a custom cover!

Thank you so much! I was looking for a super customizable wheel. And your link helped out. Definitely used that code

[@davedemayo5241]

WOW! I was going to purchase one of these covers for my Mercedes. But after watching this video and seeing how incredibly complex and involved it is I said no way. I'm glad I found this video BEFORE I made the purchase.

[@sven_the_giant]

It's a lot easier than you think. This guy did the most complex way possible lmao. Check some other videos out. I just did my Chevy Silverado and I did it in an afternoon over the weekend. You definitely don't need to dismount the steering wheel.

I’m glad I found this video, just so happen to be working on the same steering wheel! Mines out of a Mazda protege5

Glad it helped! I love these mazda wheels

Excellent video, thanks for taking the trouble.

I want to do my steering in my new 2000 Toyota celica

[@CashedOutCars]

Go for it!

[@LukBacca]

I went with carbon fibre but in hindsight I'd probably go with suede at the top and bottom just because carbon fibre can look a little flashy

[@thewayfaringanarchists8157]

my blob sti is in dire need of this

[@CashedOutCars]

It makes a nice improvement in feel and look! I’m thinking about doing the wheel in my 92X Aero, it could use it too!

Where did you get the ball mount you used to hold your wheel in the video?

[@fa5ezra]

Super dopee vid 👌

[@CashedOutCars]

Thanks my friend!

[@bcrosby51]

Where can I get that mount at to hold it while working?

[@TheCreationman]

Great video! I ordered mine with the perforated leather and suede as well on my 2014 f150 The stitching and time is my only issue right now. I know I’ll do a good stitching job, but I’ll have to put my whole day aside for it haha

[@CashedOutCars]

It certainly takes some time and patience. Best of luck with it!

[@LukBacca]

Took me hours, had to redo the whole top area but on the redo I was 2-3x faster so it wasn't too bas

[@mauricio951]

How is the material holding up after almost a year? Have oils and sweat degraded the areas that you hold on to most?

[@CashedOutCars]

It’s still doing quite well! Mild staining on the white stitching, but nothing major and I haven’t tried to clean it. The material is still in great shape

[@markkoons7488]

Good tricks all. Thank you. Wish it was easier to pull the wheel off.

[@CashedOutCars]

Glad it helped!

[@jarrettmcgowan3663]

Anyone go thru with this? I have 0 stitching experience but am interested in the product since my steering wheel is peeling.

[@CashedOutCars]

It certainly takes time and patience but can be done with no experience

[@justinp2922]

What if i want to remove the tape later is the wheel damaged?

[@CashedOutCars]

That’s something I haven’t tried, I’d imagine it’d be okay. You may have to carefully use some adhesive removal though. It’s worth a test on a scrap piece of material

[@TheTamurai1]

Looks great! I'm also in need of doing this for my NB wheel!

[@CashedOutCars]

It makes a huge difference! Good luck with it if you go for it!

[@TheTamurai1]

@@CashedOutCars where did you get that device that mounts your wheel to the table top for easier access of working on it?

[@JasonAdank]

Id love to see a video for this process on a 2nd Gen (2005-2015) Nissan Xterra! Is removing the airbag and steering wheel really necessary? I have this crazy fear something will bump the wrong way and the airbag will explode in my face.

[@Augie..]

Nope, keep the wheel in the car. That’s what 90% of ppl do, this dude just did it WAY more complicated than you should.

[@Baneslayer]

and not a single mention of the professional grade steering wheel stand you happen to have... They just have those at princess auto right? 😂😂

how did you thread and knot the needle? i notice you had a one strand stitch on it but all the videos i found online only show double strand

The instructions tell you exactly what to do

[@hartautosports6856]

Just ordered this for my personal car went with the suede and carbon fiber with blue stitching with a blue 12 o clock point. Can’t wait because it’s my first wheel and I’m redoing my entire interior anyway

How dose the suede material hold up?

[@CashedOutCars]

It held up great so far, but it hasn't seen a ton of time in the sun

[@mafosa8519]

What’s the name of the stitches?

[@saladasSTi]

You dont need to remove the old cover? Example: my sti steering wheel has old leather and stitching on it. Do i need to remove that one or no

[@CashedOutCars]

These are made to go over the factory cover!

[@frenchonion3359]

Yeah i’m paying someone to put mine on hehe i dont have this patience

Nice video! They use genuine leather not synthetic, correct?

[@CashedOutCars]

I believe they list as leather, but I’m pretty confident it’s vinyl

[@nvertes]

@@CashedOutCars Correct it is NOT real leather!

[@Sandwich420]

Ive noticed every single East Detailing demo is always on a simple wheel without any leather wings. These covers look nice, but the one I got for my Type-R is cut too loose, the thread gets so twisted after a few passes the thread knots up. I regret buying from them, and it really sucks because theyre expensive.

[@hecmad1]

Sucks man. I would've asked flr a refund. Mine almost didnt work. But i made it work. Looks decent. Only i would be able to notice the issues.

[@realifejon]

What did you use to restore the airbag trim? Thanks!

[@CashedOutCars]

Hi! I used Mothers Back to Black: amzn.to/3uKYXbK (affiliate link). This product works great for restoring plastic trims that have faded!

[@richlien5598]

Great video. Do you have to or should remove the old leather on the steering wheel? I have a 3rd gen 4runner

[@CashedOutCars]

Thanks! This company’s kits are made to go over the old wrap, I think it wouldn’t fit right if you did remove what’s there

[@chadgeissler4544]

No, Don’t remove the old leather! I did it on my first wheel and the cover was loose. I had to find another wheel because east takes the thickness of the original leather into account when the make the cover.

[@bogdanbontas6535]

you could have got a better fit of the leather if you had first removed the old leather

[@CashedOutCars]

These East Detailing kits are specifically designed to go over the existing wrap. Some kits may not be though!

Anyone has a secret about Stitching patterns?

[@moStallion]

Why not just use 3M glue instead of tape

[@CashedOutCars]

You certainly can, as long as it has a long enough working time to move it into place.
