Mine is really worn out at the top and having a pieces of w/e material it is come off..

 

The dealer replaced mine at 30k under warranty.

some dealers will re-wrap your steering wheel with new leather...for a price.

 

with the same materials??? how does that work?

 

do the dealerships usually cover something like that under warranty?

 

Just buy a used steering wheel on ebay, they go from $30-100 at MOST. Have a shop put it on for you.

 

is it a pretty easy DIY? my main concern is deploying the air bag lol

Its pretty standard on most vehicles how the steering wheels go on...

Disconnect the battery. Chances are that there is a screw on either side of the steering wheel (beneath two caps) that will release the airbag (undo these). The airbag has a harness, disconnect it. Beneath the airbag there should be a nut that secures the wheel down onto the steering column. Should be simple. BTW, the airbag won't explode unless you're doing this while you're driving into a wall

Or ask Calvin to bring his sewing kit over and he'll give you a custom furry pink replacement.
