RARE Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 My leather steering wheel is in terrible shape. I'd love to replace it with a wood/leather wheel, but can't find one anywhere. Any suggestions on where to look? No one locally refurbishes, so I have to look elsewhere. I can get one from a 2001 LX470... anybody know if that'll fit my '96 450? I know some of you guys have used American Stitches... were you happy with their work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molocka12 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Not sure if this will help but worth checking out. eBay - search toyota land cruiser steering wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougjohn2 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I put some wheelskins on my wheel. Made a huge improvement, IMHO. www.wheelskins.com just pull the new leather on and stitch it together. I went with a 2-tone -- oak and black -- my advice would be to stick with one color. If I were to do it again, I think I'd go with the perferated model in all black (maybe a dark brown) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tundra-lover Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 I would agree! The wheelskins looked awesome on my 4Runner, and matched the leather perfectly. Only $40 I think, but a real pain to install. For a replacement wheel, you might want to check out car-parts.com for nearly anything. Most toyota steering wheels are probably the same fitment, but may cost anywhere from $70- $900 from what I've seen. eBay didn't have much to look at, and most had the wood trim.
