Steer Wheel Retrims
 
I am picking up a 2001 WRX later in the week and the steering wheel could do with a retrim. I have been looking at the threads on here about royal steering wheels and was just looking for some pictures from people that have used them. Ideally I was thinking I'd like perforated leather with blue stitching and thumb grips.

Ha ha you have to be kidding me, i have the same steering wheel and want samething. Whats your question?

NickR85 29 May 2017 09:15 AM

I am still on the lookout for a widetrack but at the money I'm getting the WRX at it will keep me going in the meantime.

I'm just looking for pictures of anybody that has used them and what they went for (I.e leather, alcantara etc)

What were you thinking of doing with yours?

Don't like that design. Plus £250 is over priced. I could buy an STI wheel for £100 and get it retrimed myself for less.

What sort of price do they charge for re trimming?
Might get my v3sti wheel done before I sell it?

Not sure mate? It's not in too bad condition but worth checking if it's worth a re trim to make it mint :wonder:

Don't worry I shall pray to the scuby gods for you pal you never know :D

Spoke to them other day Rich £130 that includes return postage. That's if you can live without your steering for abit. Or they do a swap, you send your wheel back after you receive there's. I'd prefer keep my own wheel.

If you go for it Buy a second wheel, as you use yours as daily don't you?

I have a snap off steering wheel on jay so the v3 wheel would be for sale at some point,just working out if it's worth re trimming? This steering wheel is getting quite rare now and the same wheel used on the 22b.
£120 is a decent price for what looks like quality work.

jaygsi 29 May 2017 03:37 PM

What's condition of v3 wheel? Not sure it would be worth retiming to sell. Unless go for insane money lol.

Not it great condition and I'm not too sure how much they make when mint,maybe one to keep hold of for the future.
I've got a few bits I need to put up for sale just not got around to it yet.

jaygsi 30 May 2017 01:53 PM
