Default Custom steering wheel cover?

Did a search...came up empty. Somewhere I saw a steering wheel cover with: "CORVETTE" emboidered or written along the curved part of the cover? Anyone know where these are available?

Yep, Vette Essentials...



They recover a steering wheel for you and then you give them yours when you pick it up

- Vette Essentials. I haven't come across an emboidered cover. Check with Ecklers or Mid-American Corvette. If it exists I would suspect one of those vendors would have it.

Try the link I posted in my first post - VE sells high quality interior pieces for C5 and C6 Corvettes. I think they sold Ronal wheels for a while, but they are most definitely an interior supplier.

Vettessentials does not sell the cover only. They will sell you a professionally covered steering wheel which you would install (or better yet, have a dealer install it for you) then you return the old wheel to Vettessentials). I have not seen a "cover" sold that has the Corvette embroidery on it.

Their work is absolutely the best available.
