    no issue/damage sa current steering wheel ko... just want to have it wrapped in leather as its more comfortable to hold.

    what do you guys think?

    car might be sold in 1-2 years... tyagain ko na lang ba? o have it wrapped and hopefully enjoy the car on its remaining years with us?
    Last time, I asked Seatmate to use genuine leather. More than 5 years na pero looks good pa rin. Your choice really.

    Just out of curiosity, how much does Seatmate typically charge for a steering wheel leather wrap?

    as per their FB Messenger

    P2,200 for steering wheel plain leather wrap
    Addl P300 for perforated leather / for 2-tone leather
    Addl P500 for repair if needed (pag nattwist na po forward & backward yung wheel)

    Material is automotive grade genuine cowhide premium leather.

    Mura na. Better if Full grain leather sana ginagamit. Mas matibay.

    Are you saying that all steering wheel covers are tacky?

    Yeah, those stretched-on steering wheel covers seems uncomfortable in the hands and looks gaudy.

    nagmahal na din kasi naalala ko less than 2k bayad ko pa re-up ng manibela sa seatmate alabang nuong 2015. pero may dagdag pa bayad ko kasi sinabay ko na iyong gear selector knob.

    naalala ko iniwan ko pa iyong sasakyan tapos nanood ng "avengers: age of ultron".

    Yeah had my wife's innova leather wrapped yung steering wheel done din sa seatmate around 2017 maybe & it caost P1,8k I think then you gear shift parang P800 yata nun. Medyo makapal & feel mo yung circumfereence na difference.

    A few years back, the leather of my Mazda 3 was starting to peel off. I didn't want to have to have it done sa seatmate coz ayoko ng makapal. I saw in Lazada a think leather that you have to saw yourself. Took maybe around 2 hours plus a lot of gas for the aircon kasi mainit hehe. Didn't notice the difference in circumference. Had it for 2 years or more I think & so far so good!
