New DTM style steering wheel from DCT Motorsports

I contacted DCT Motorsports to treat my CLS to a special steering wheel. Ivan at DCT helped me design this wheel that I am very happy with.

Thanks again Ivan

Taking off the air bag is easy, but the main bolt that holds the steering wheel in place is a big pain.

Thanks bro. I used the leather from my rear headrest for the inserts on the wheel. Without those it would be impossible to match that leather.

Wow! That looks great! Love the white ring on the top. I wanted a ring as well but they didn't have a color to match my set up.

On a coincidental note, Ivan emailed me a pic of the steering wheel he and his crew did for my Suburban. I can't say enough about the great work they have done for me and a lot of us on the board. This would be my 4th steering wheel from DCT.
