Default New Steering Wheel Installed - DSV/VetteCandy

Big thanks to the guys at DSV/VetteCandy, just got the new steering wheel installed and couldn't be happier. I think it totally completes the interior. The red is a perfect match and it feels great! Just wanted to share a few pics:







If anyone needs it, I have my stock one available for sale, you could send it to DSV and they can take care of you as well.

Looks really good. If you don't mind, could you share what the cost for the steering wheel was assuming you provided a core? PM would work too if you don't want to post the price in the thread.

I put a D-shaped two tone wheel in my precision red C6- also from Down South Vettes- and as I recall it was about $550 with the core exchange.
