Wheelskins on A-TL.com??
This site has these on sale under the accessories part. has anybody used these??
my leather wheel is STARTING to show some wear, i'm hiding it well and preventing any further damage by keeping it conditioned, but these are pretty inexpensive, and might look good with a dual colored skin
any feedback i'd appreciate thanks guys

I put a Honda leather steering wheel cover on my wheel and judging by the instructions that come with it and the packaging, I bet you dollars to donuts it's made by Wheelskins. The only difference is that the genuine Honda one omits the lacing holes at the four spokes and the leather seems to be of a nicer quality.
In either case, be aware that the cover may not be wide enough at certain spots on the wheel, leaving a gap; the stock steering wheel and cover is "relatively" thick already. If you get one made with a cheaper cut of leather, you may find it to be thick and bulky at the seam (four seams if you get a dual color cover or one with perforated panels).
Mine came out OK, it's not show quality but it does give a thicker grip to the wheel and it'll protect the original cover in the meantime.

lawaia....yea, thanks for posting the colors, i have seen them already though
that's why i asked if anyone had actually put them in a TL with parchment interior, and if so, which color matched the best
seeing as how there are 2 shades of tan/brown in that interior, i figured it'd be best if someone KNEW which color(s) matched the best
