I've been looking at 944s lately and many have steering wheel covers in pretty bad condition.

I see that Pelican has recovering kits for 911s. Does anyone know of kits for 944s? And, how difficult are they to install?

Thanks for your help.

I can't imagine that the wheels are different. The 944 also came with the 3 and 4-spoke wheels.

I did mine with a Wheelskins kit.

I got mine from Auto Anything for something around $43. Looks like http://www.autoanything.com/steering...A3792A0A0.aspx

I bought this kit because I had done it on my old Volvo Turbo, which turned out well. The process takes a while, but looks and feels very good when finished. I think I spent about two hours on it.

I have heard that there are cheaper E-bay kits that do the same thing in the $8 range. No experience with those, caveat emptor. But, rumor has it they can feel just as good.

I have a 4-spoke 944/2 wheel. The leather was all shrunken-head mummified. I did a ghetto wrap job of cork bicycle handlebar tape around the four spars, as they were misshapen. then the wheelskin went over them to secure the ends.

Where I had been talking myself into $300 for a Momo setup, for under fifty bucks, I am fine with a recovered OEM wheel.
