The leather on my steering wheel was already wearing through when I bought her 8 years ago but after a grueling drive in the rain on Saturday, a hole was torn in the side from holding onto the wheel so hard.

Is there any source outside of the dealer for an OEM steering wheel? (I'm trying to avoid the performanceproduct aftermarket wheels)

I would think you should be able to score a nice speciman at a Pick n Pull. Did you notice the prices for P P's wheels in the last catalog? $$$ Jeeze.

There are very few Pick N Pulls in CT and theres no gurrantee that i'll find a decent wheel at one. P P's charging what $700 for a non-OEM wood trimmed wheel (Which probably isn't even Zebrano anyways) I also believe that people have complaned that the P P's wheels don't fit perfectly.
