I had pressed Eddie to make these several months ago. Whitecrystal1 actually convinced him to make them. All in all, I think they turned out very nice all the way across the board.

This mod isn't for everyone - no doubt. Everyone has opinions about how they want their truck to look but, for me, this is a nice little touch that makes a difference in look. In my opinion, it's these subtle touches that set certain trucks apart from the others.

Kudos to you to. You made this happen more than me. I may have just sped it up a little. If I was the only one to ask I'm sure this wouldn't have happened. Besides when I ask about it it was already on his list to do. Thanks Rockpick

I believe the vast majority would agree with me. You can get a complete leather steering wheel cover for less than $50. I still think it's overpriced. Also, in Koolaid's picture, it looks wrinkled.

Off topic? You could say the same about literally 90% of the posts on here.

Again, thanks for your opinion. You're entitled to it and always go out of your way to portray it.

You're right. I'm wrong. We all are horrible people for buying these... yadda-yadda-yadda. It's old rocky85, let it go?

Those are not wrinkles.

That's a refection of the chrome shifter surround you are seeing.

But thanks for looking.

Thanks. I studied the way Ford laced up the steering wheel cover and copied the over and under lacing method that they used.

I really like this mod. To bad I don't have a floor shifter now in the 250.
