Rumblestrip Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Help! The silver foil on my steering wheels trim is starting to peel. They don't look replaceable so could I get it vinyl wrapped? Would it need removing? Attached a photo. Sent by mind control using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 They are a replaceable part, you'll struggle to get hold of one without them trying to sell with the steering wheel though. There's three torx screws behind it holding it in place. Search eBay :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I'll have a look on my Microcat for you so you know what the book prices and part numbers are. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblestrip Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 Cheers lads. Any info would be great. I'd imagine this wouldn't be covered by warranty haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 If you want it a different colour, could always remove it. Smooth it and have it wrapped or sprayed. I had one sprayed gloss black on my old ZS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblestrip Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 If anything I'd get it the same colour, or the same titanium colour as the centre console. I assume they can wrap it whilst it's in place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Better to remove it if your having it wrapped. Get a better quality wrap so they can fold it behind. Easily removed with a Torx bit removing the three screws behind it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblestrip Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 I'll have a look tomorrow mate. There's a good place not far from me that's highly recommended for wrapping. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Had a good look on Microcat and annoyingly the wheel trim is not shown anywhere. very strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I had that problem at the dealers, told me it wasn't available as a seperate part. So I ended up convincing someone on eBay to split from a steering wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 The curious thing is that the Microcat image doesn't even show the trim. It must be a figment of our collective imaginations ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblestrip Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 Looks like I'm getting it wrapped then! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I reckon so :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan54771 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 ️️Hahaa typical, it's the same with the chrome insert in the mk7.5 zs and St cup holder. I was told it can't be supplied seperate. Rather that or see if you can acquire one on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
