I just put this cover on my '06 Explorer last weekend. This thing looks great! Like anything else worthwhile, it takes some effort to do right. But look at your options at Walmart, Autozone, Target, etc....the ridiculous slip on covers they sell are embarrassing. I guess most people don't want to have to put any effort into anything these days, let alone a stupid steering wheel :) For some reason I keep thinking of the movie 'Idiocracy'...Anyway, this is a true quality piece of hide. It is very brown, though - nothing like the pic. Amazon really should update the photo. Use the cross stitch. Looks great. Took me about 2 hours to do right. And very much worth it afterwards. I actually bought another one for my other vehicle. Use a pair of mechanics gloves to save your skin!
