It's a great affordable option.
I own and operate an Auto Upholstery shop. I offer these as an cheaper option instead of making a custom replacement cover. I think they are great. I use similar stitch over covers often.Note: it does take quite a while (3+hrs) to install but it's very basic skill level.

Very good for the price!
It took about 6 hours total to install in a way that I would like, but I was being very meticulous. I removed the airbag and pulled up the trim ring to make sure the edges on the wheel spokes didn’t have any material bunched up on it. There are still some spots where the leather was bunching up and others where it wasn’t long enough. I did my best to not blame the cut quality, I’m not a master of these customer covers but have put them on other vehicles before and had it looked better.I also bought double sided tape made for fabric that wasn’t included in the kit to make sure the leather lays flat on the center spokes. The tension from the stitches wouldn’t be enough to hold the material down around these curves without it.Overall it was a lot cheaper than replacing the old, sticky, glossy leather wheel with a new part or even a reupholstered one from eBay. That’s why I’m giving it a perfect score, cause the next option up is $600+

Wow! nice.
I didnt know what to expect. The price was a little high but I see why now. The materials are top shelf. The instructions were easy to follow. It should last a really long time. Getting started was the hardest part. But once you get it all lined up it went on pretty fast. I got the black one and it is very black. I was worried the dye would come off on my hands but it didnt. It is super soft, smells like a new car. Totally beautiful. Just like my Mercedes. Love it! Definitely worth the money.

A long job to install (2.5 hours) , ok quality, good value
The Steering Wheel Wrap arrived promptly. The package includes the wrap and a sawing kit to stitch it around the steering wheel. Here are some observations:- The materials are medium quality. While it feels pleasant to the touch, it is not the fantastic feeling you get from high-quality natural leather.- Materials have a faint leather smell. I think it is real leather, but I cannot be 100% sure (I am not an expert)- While this kit was advertised as being for Mercedes C-Class W204/E-CLASS W212 W207/SLK-Class C172/CLA-CLASS W117/CLS-Class C218 2012 2013 2014 (and it fits well), the instructions are not specific for Mercedes, which made me think that maybe I received the wrong one (I didn't).- The kit comes with two needles. One Is dull and very useful to pass a thread under an existing stitch, and the second is sharp and helpful to pass a thread through material. Use the dull one, as you'll want to pass the needle and thread under existing stitching.- Stitching took 2.5 hours and much patience. Stitching requires passing at thread under existing stitches already on the leather. One of the needles (the dull one) is very handy for that, as it will not tend to poke through the leather or the thread itself. The other one is very sharp and wants to drive through the leather or the stitching material, which differs from what you want. Since the dull needle broke (low-quality needle, the eyes popped open), I had to deal with the sharp one, and it was not good until I dulled it up using a sharpening stone. When it was sharp, passing it under the stitching without going through it was tough, which is undesirable.- The stitching thread is strong, but the quality could be higher.- The results are pretty good, but it was much work.- I recommend taking your time, going slow, and paying attention to the details. If you try to rush it, you will not like the results.Overall, I like this product. It improves the appearance and feel of the original steering wheel of my MSB C300. The included needles and materials could be of higher quality, but overall, it is a good purchase for the money, assuming you are handy and willing to spend 2.5 hours stitching.

Good quality construction, initial fit on wheel is good. Install very complex
This looks good, except I am not fond of the white stripe at the topThere is a front and back to this so check carefully before stitchingThe leather is not pre-punched so all sewing must be done by youThe complexity of this installation is high, yes anyone could put this on, but for it to look professional, I recommend a professional.The images of what it fits and what it doesn’t is not the best reference. My SLK350 has paddle shifters and looks just like the will fit image.Cost at time of review $45.99Overall, I do not want this to look like an aftermarket steering wheel cover. Everything I have tried leaves a lot to be desired, the edges do not line up and touch making it look like a poor-quality job. I am looking for an expert to install this as the complexity is way more than I want to deal with. I also do not like the stripe at the top. I know where the top of my wheel is and do not need this reference.
