Default New DSV Premium Steering Wheels Are Starting To Rollout!!! (Pictures Inside)
Hello,

We have been working hard on our new D-Sport Premium Steering Wheels which we introduced a couple a weeks ago. Our craftsmen our finishing up the first batch and we will be posting pictures of these in the coming days. These steering wheels are 100% handcrafted and do take time to make. If you dont see yours pictured, please be pacient since it is still in the production queue. Here are the first pictures.

The airbag cover and caps that are mounted on the steering wheel for illustrative purposes. The steering wheel caps are available now and we are getting our airbag cover design validated by a DOT approved testing facility, to make sure that it deploys correctly if it would ever be needed in the event of an accident. We will have these available in the next couple of months.

The price for the steering wheel is $599.00 plus a $250.00 fully refundable core charge.

looks perfect, but isnt the wheel too thick? I always thought our steering wheels needed to be a little thicker, but how does this feel?

You are doing mine with RED stitching, right??!
...and if it gets here before the "out west" trip, that would be great.

Thats a great price and you will have my business as soon as my C5 is gone and my C6Z gets here.

This will probably be the first mod for my C6Z.

Greetings DS,

Would if be possible to have the same steering wheel in 2008 Z06 Linen instead of the Gray? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Regards, Z06Chief

Something like this?



I got this from DSVettes a couple of months ago. I changed the caps from CF to leather after this picture was taken because they didn't match my center console. The wheel is great and I am glad I bought it.
