Are aftermarket leather steering wheel wraps any good???
I am expecting to take delivery of my new 2000 F150/7700 4x4 S/C 5.4/auto in the next several weeks. I ordered the truck in XLT trim (solid Cardinal Red/tan interior) and upgraded to captain's chairs with center console. My question is has anyone found a good quality aftermarket leather steering wheel wrap that does not look cheesy? If so where did you find it and what was the install like?
I would have loved to have gotten the leather interior but I was not willing to buy into the Lariat package to do so, particularly on the 7700 payload package which includes the chrome 8-lug wheels/axles instead of the Lariat's chrome 17 inch wheels (plus I already have a set of 285/75/16 tires that are going on the day the truck arrives). With Chevy trucks you can order leather seats as a stand-alone option, I wish Ford would offer this as well.
This truck is a major upgrade from my 1997 F150 4x2 reg cab 4.2/auto and I would like the truck to feel more "plush" on the inside.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh

Josh,
I also want to get a leather stearing wheel. Talking to one of the sales guys about it he suggested a local place that does leather interiors. Looks like it would be about $60 to have it professionally wrap. This is the route I will go. I don't want one of those cheap do it yourself wraps.
