my steering wheel is badly cracked
(Not by my hand)

I'm more a fan of OG wheels but are there any other alternative options other than the usual woodrim ones ?
 
I had the same dilemma, and succumbed to one by MCJ products yesterday at volksworld

Why didn't I buy my bus years ago !?

Mike does a great job but he is pricey, especially the postage on the wheel to and from him makes it all too pricey.
 
There is a tech post on how to repair you cracked one here:

He is very pricey, great job though

Quality never comes cheap lol
 
he quoted £215 for the resto on my steering plus the postage back to UK some 3 months ago. I dunno if he has changed the prices since then. the above price doesn't include postage from UK to him. cheers

here is how bad it was:
