Just got back form Macarthur spares (NSW)
Got a used XR6 leather red mono wheel and a black Tbar chrome (vynil) knob all installed for 200 bucks. Time to buy some leather gear! What should I get to treat the wheel? Uncle_Ken :thebirds:

This thread is useless without pics.
Any leather reconditioning/reviver products ... Meguiar's products are good. I have used it on my new wheel ... and damn it makes a huge difference. Is that Parts Plus along Smeaton Grange Rd????

On a serious side I haven't tried the leatherique stuff but all the Jag guys say its tops. According to their site they're in Lindhurst, near you? Roger.

i've also fitted a blue/black momo wheel and momo t-bar handle.
www.cardomain.com/id/scrubasfalcon on page 7 I have since removed the Forte and Series 3 badges for a cleaner look. Wanted to do a few more mods to it but I may be purchasing an XR6 in the next 3 months or so.

Yep Leatherique is a great choice. I have known about it for some time through the USA but have contacted the australian distributor about it
Lots of other top brands available too Remember with all leathers to check if they are clearcoated or not Put a few drops of water onto the surface If it goes off/wipes off without changing the colour, they are clearcoated Water that darkens means uncoated. Traditional hide food treatments won't work on clearcoated, you will need to use a cleaner and a protectant that works on all types
