Hi - a bit of a longshot but does anyone have a marine blue (almost black) steering wheel with good stitching for a 1990 944S2?

Thanks,

Mike

Thanks for the link but I want to keep the original style of wheel - i.e. 4 spoke.

I should have made this clear in my first post!

A Clubsport wheel would have been original on an S2 as it could have been bought on the options list.

It looks so much better than Standard.

I stitched my own. It's quite easy but a bit time consuming - maybe four hours to do the whole wheel. I went to the local knitting / sewing shop and told her what I was doing. She gave me the really strong thread and I just followed the pattern using the holes that are already there.

You wouldn't know it hadn't been professionally done - after all, it's only a bit of stitching.

Go-on, have a go at it.....
