I got my 1 piece decal off Ebay. 91ZR1 was the seller I believe. It's been on for two years with no problems.

I have this one too. After trying others, this one is the only one that stayed stuck on, plus it looks much nicer than the plain decals, IMHO/

Here's another vote for Decal specialties.

Decal Specialties

I've had my decal on for 4 years and no problems. I'm not sure why you had them falling off. Did you clean and prep the surface before you applied it?

I went with the vinyl decal. Many tiny pieces but the finished result looks great. The key is to make sure that he wheel is extremely clean. I used some Lexol cleaner with a tooth brush a couple of times and then rinsed. Use a hair dryer to get it completely dry, apply the decals and then use the hair dryer again to really set the decal. As you can see from the photo, the decal actually formed right into the grain of the wheel.

Improper cleaning is the cause 99% of the time.

It is actually a wrap not a new steering wheel. I love Vette Essentials products but I cannot afford to do my whole interior with them so went a different route. I stuck with Mid America's interior products to match together and very affordable.
