I've just got a new heated wheel from Island 4x4, for £120 all in. No exchange. It's not bad, and a big improvement on the old non heated, worn out wheel. |

Got a powerful one in mine, had it about 14 months now, still feels great and works well, fitted one for a mate and he is pleased as well... don't know how they can do it for the price.... Pete

Pete - they are an exchange wheel so they get your old one...I guess that's the only way, but like you say...there can't be much margin in it as it's a pretty time hefty job to cover? Is this where I put the car details and a bit about myself ?........ |

The Powerful one I had in my old 4.4 was nicely made and really lovely to hold, but the heating was terrible compared to the standard fit 'wheel.

I've fitted plenty of the reconditioned PowefulUK ones in both FFRR and D3's. All have been 100% spot on and like Craig says, I don't know how they do it for the money.

Do google search on steering wheel refurbishment, can't remember the name off hand but you can get yours done for about £150 in a couple of contrasting colours as well. They even have loan wheels! Almost first on search list but loads of companies doing it. 2003 4.4 Adriatic Blue FF |
