Steering wheel / cover or replace?

[Giusto]

Hi All,
I dislike the wood bit on my steering wheel.
I don't like the textural difference between the wood and the leather. And, it's a bear in the cold weather – chilly wood, warm leather (romantic song title perhaps?)

Has anyone reading this covered their steering wheel with an aesthetically pleasing, yet utilitarian cover? Or replaced their wheel with something from this company(?):

I put a Loncky steering wheel cover on my wife's 2009 LC over Christmas and it might be the best $60 mod I've ever done. Planning to do my 100 series later this month.

Yes sir, right over the wood. Use a lot of tape and take your time.

Put duct tape or sport tape on your fingers. Really helps keep the thread from biting.
