After advice on what not to do, Id like to do the horn pad in leather too but the rim section up top has a worn section, anyone had there wheel redone? It’s beyond my skills, no doubt someone could do it, I’ll replace my door trims with leather ghia items and do the console lid or replace with leather ghia unit, the hand brake cover Id like to do too, I love leather.
