Covered my already leather steering wheel with DIY leather cover (PICS).

As you've seen my other threads about changing all the stock bulbs to LED I noticed with the new lighting the steering wheel is thin, kinda dull looking.

I looked online for a proper Mazda cover for our trucks but couldn't find anything I liked.

So I just ordered one of those leather steering wheel covers off eBay for cheap, if it's garbage I'll just throw it away.

On Saturday my wife and I gave it a go. We watched a few YouTube videos on DIY installs of this caliber.

I'm shocked, it actually looks awesome and for only $7.99 and about an hour of time. I may just by an even better one later but for now, I likey.

A thing you may notice is why I didn't tuck the leather inside the control slots, well you can't. You'd have to take the steering wheel off to get behind the screws for the volume / cruise control boxes. Trust me I wanted to but I'm not taking the wheel off.

Here are some before / during / after pics.
