Steering Wheel upgrade

I couldn't justify the cost of a burr walnut wheel Big Cry so opted for the chrome spoke kit from LR Thumbs Up Lifts the look of my standard wheel imo Cool

I've just gone for the same, but bought a complete new wheel for £150 with the Nappa leather. I do think the brushed steel spokes look really nice as they tie in nicely with the other metallic parts.

I like the look of that, like Dan says it really goes well with other silver trim.
I am thinking of upgrading mine to piano black and nappa leather. Best price I have seen is £350 from powerful uk. Where have you got yours Dan? £150 is a great price. FFRR TD6 HSE

The chrome spokes looks really great considering that the original black plastic peels off quite easily! 2000 BMW M5, Avus Blue/LeMans Leather Interior

Looks excellent Daveo.
Can you just buy that little black badge to replace the green/gold one in the middle of the wheel.

yeah, but I think he may have had the steering wheel and side detail near the seat belt done to match. Could be wrong as dont know exactly what spec 2004 autobiography came with. FFRR TD6 HSE

Whistle don't really know... maybe you're right! I also don't know the spec of the Autobiographies! I think they were custom built but not quite sure! Should wait for Daveo to fill in. 2000 BMW M5, Avus Blue/LeMans Leather Interior

United Kingdom 2004 Range Rover Vogue 4.4 V8 Java Black

When I got my 2004 Vogue last year, the only part of the interior showing any wear was the wheel and spokes, so I too got a replacement, lightly padded grey leather with chrome spokes, from Powerful UK for about £150 ish ...it really livened up the interior and made the car feel like new again Smile cheers

i had my pillar trims done by the same chap who done my wheel, they all have black stitching, the 2010 AB have leather pillar trims and you can get leather or suede roof lining, i had them done in soft grain leather and the colour is bang on.

with the black badge on the air bag, that one is a new air bag and came with the black and silver badge from the factory but you can change your old one, you will find the green one on the car is a tin one, if you buy the black and silver door card badge that have been used to update the door cards[been posted on her by dan] it uses the same tin badge, just un-clip it from the door card clip and it will fit,
