The BMW 1 Series E87 steering wheel is slightly dated and not at all sporty. With the help of PHATBITSUK i made my old steering wheel look brand new.
I have also sold my Audi TT MK2, the time just felt right to move on to bigger projects which means more entertainment for you!

Seen some negative comments here but I've literally just done this on my BMW E91 3 series (mine was a Mewant kit from eBay though) and the results look awesome - just needs to be done properly and it'll look amazing! Mat's 2 main mistakes here (sorry Mat, love your vids bro) were putting the cover on backwards and not using the double sided tape that comes with these kits, applying the tape to the bits by the wheel spokes is an absolute NECESSITY to stop the creases and bulges forming when you sew the stitching together as it's a very tight fit. Another top tip to make this 100 times easier is just take the steering wheel off and do this from the comfort of your own home. All you have to do is disconnect the battery, remove the airbag (actually super easy), disconnect the 2 connectors for the steering wheel buttons and remove the single bolt holding the wheel on. This means you don't have to be sat in the drivers seat for many, many hours doing this (I did mine watching some TV after work!) and also means that you can make the stitching so much more even and neat - honestly it might take you 20/30 mins max to remove the wheel but will save several hours overall and will give a much, much better result!

Might be an idea to cable tie the wrap to the wheel first then do the stitching. It may help keeping it in place and pulling it right making it easier

Reason why it looks creased on the sides is due to the wrap being for a M-Sport steering wheel which are a little thicker then the sport steering wheel. But effort for trying and still looks better then standard.

Need a flat head screwdriver for the airbag dude it’s fidley but easy to do once you’ve got your head round what need to happen. It’s just a long spring bit of metal you push in as you pull the same side of the air bag then repeat on the other side I did it when I changed my steering wheel to Royals one with Alcantara and perforated leather on my M3
