WTB: 1LE Alcantara Steering Wheel (Manual Style)

302Blue · 03-30-2018, 04:28 PM

If anyone has an extra alcantara steering wheel for a manual (no paddles) and with the grey stitching, I'd be willing to buy.

Mine formed a hole in the top and my dealership is saying it is a wear item and cannot be covered under warranty. I would rather take a spare off one of ya'll instead of buying brand new.

I’m all for saving a penny where ya can but I think they are only ~$3xx brand new. Not as much as I thought they would be.

I saw that one, actually the reason I posted. His is already sold, was just hoping someone had also done the same thing and had the old steering wheel laying around lol.

Like ninetres said, the prices aren't too bad and if no one did happen to have one, I'm going to buy one. I just figured I'd ask.

I bought the steering wheel in that link. It has the rev match paddles. You just can't see it in the pictures.

Also, I had my Alcantara Steering Wheel replaced in my 2014 1LE under warranty for excessive wear by a dealer free of charge at 25k. A lot of other people also did on the 5th gen.

You think it'd be worth driving up to a different dealership and seeing if they'd replace it? I mean, I'm only at 8k miles.

I'd try going to a different dealer for a replacement. It sounds like your issue could be a manufacturer defect although mine was replaced for excessive wear and tear.

I ended up swapping to leather on my 5th gen because i daily drove the car 30k/year and would have worn out the alcantara in 6 months.
