I ordered the Euro 2 tone model (yellow/black) for my proton. I must say that I am COMPLETELY satisfied with it. Simply put it over the current steering wheel. It will take about an hour or more to manually sew it on but in the end you will completely love it. Once on, driving the VX feels so much different. The leather is very nice to the touch and very thick once applied. I'm serious when I say I have had as many compliments on the steering wheel than just about any other mod I've done. Everyone gets in and immediately grabs for the wheel, complimenting it and asking where and how much.

One thing to note that quite often (about every 2 weeks) you will need to wipe it down with very diluted soapy water to remove "oils" and such. My yellow will get black spots on it just from the normal oils from my hands. Once it starts to get a "sticky" feeling, simply wipe it off. Also NEVER use any type of protectant such as Mirror Glaze or Armor All on it. It will destroy the leather and is stated as such in bold letters in the instructions.

Basically once applied, simply wipe it once in a while to keep it clean and enjoy the new feeling. It really does feel different driving when you have one of these. I love mine and would recommend it to anyone.

Hey Ty,

When are you gonna post some pics? I need to see what I couldve bought.

Darnit! I just knew you were gonna ask LOL

ok ok so I've been slacking behind on getting some pics together...

I was really just waiting on getting some parts first.

I ordered some stuff from Ron like the fang extenders, front/rear yellow skidplates, clear lenses (for the white/amber switching turn signal LEDs from autolumination), etc.

I also made contact with the guy in Japan (can't remember his name at the moment) that used to (or maybe still does) sell carbon fiber accessories. He responded and said he would check with the manufacturer and get back to me but I've not heard from him. It's been about a month.

I was wanting to post pics once I installed everything...but it looks as though now would be as good a time as any.

I'll get some together by the weekend and post them. Thanks... I needed a good quick swift kick. A few others PM me asking the same thing so I guess with all the pressure . . . LOL
