Sorry Dave, it seems I can't post to normal threads anymore without attracting bashers.

F-I-E-R-O, I have not had any problems with you, but I really disagree with your opinion that these comments belong here. This is CPU's build thread and should not be convoluted with personnal attacks and general crap. If you want to bash Archie start your own thread and bash away but have respect for others build threads and keep 'em clean.

Ok - Ok - Here are some pics of the steering wheel. I'd have preferred to get the shots during the install - but I was working on a 1/2 height headlight assembly while Rob was doing my steering wheel for me.....

Pics show a nice clean new steering wheel. Great value from FieroStore!

Nice matching leather job. How is the grip and feel of the sterring wheel? Is the leather soft?
DrCPU OCT 10, 04:48 PM
The quality of the leather on the replacement is very high. Soft - yet firm. The stitching isn't as good as I'd like, but well within the cost of the unit. They manufacturer used black thread - and maybe a little too thin thread. If they had used a color matched waxed thread i'd say it would be perfect. You don't notice the stitching as it's away from view. One of the pics was taken to show the stitching. Notice the individual stitches are not as close together as OEM units - but perfectly acceptable.

The fit and feel is as close to the OEM as I can tell. I have the old wheel and will redo it this winter as a project. I have lots of time to kill - so won't have any excuses.

The new wheel is lighter in color than the original - but is a great match to my Mr. Mike's Tan leather interior.

I'm very happy with the wheel and would recommend it to anyone who is looking to keep the interior as close to stock as they can. Also - at just over a hundred dollars - it was a literal steal! Buying from Fiero Wharehouse is top notch as well. I've only ever had good service from them.

Dave
