Steering wheel cover

I wanted to know if anyone is using a cover on their steering wheels. I like my leather wheel and dont want it to fade or dull out so I wana cover it. I had a VW GTI and after 5 yrs or so the black leather started fading(brownish) around the spokes where I'd usually hold the wheel. I found a company that made wheel covers that fit perfectly. Not just around the wheel but the spokes all the way up to the airbag. It had to be laced up and it fit snug. I even peeled the original one off cuz the new one was so oem fitting. I just dont remember the company name or where on line I got it from. So does anyone have some insight, thanks.

Use a good Leather Cleaner/Protectant on your Wheel and it should be fine. I'm @ 3yrs. 4mo. and Molly's Steering Wheel still looks like new. I'm not one to hold it @ the 10 & 2 position though, I am more of a lower left finger grabber!!
