Thumbs up Steering Wheel Factory Treatment
Hi All,

Does anyone know who makes the leather steering wheels for MB? Also what do they use to treat the leather and prevent sun damage? I recently bought a 2003 e500 that came from sunny clinates and the top of the wheel is drying out. I have tried conventional leather conditioners without much success. Any suggestions / products would be appreciated.
