Exclamation My Steering Wheel needs help

My 2000 F250 SD with tan Lariat trim is holding up well, with the exception of the tan leather steering wheel. From about the 11 o'clock to 2 o'clock position, the leather has become worn and badly discolored.

I am not a big fan of the slip-over covers at the auto-parts store. I'm considering something like one of those steering wheel wood kits that cover the top and bottom portions of your wheel, but I do NOT want something that looks cheap, ill-fitted or mis-matched to my Lariat "wood" in the doors.

Anyone have any advice on where I should go for a good wood kit for my wheel that will look 'factory'?

I have a 94 Ford Explorer with a tan leather interior and steering wheel...mine was worn and badly discolored and nothing was available to remedy this.... In order to match and remain as original as possible...I simply ordered a original matching replacement from the Dealer....good luck !

If it is still under warranty, you might try and have Ford replace it. I had mine on my Explorer become worn and loose after 2 years, and they put a new one on for me under warranty. You never know...

The American Stitches site looks great.
Has anyone used them or gotten pricing?
I have the some 10 to 2 problem on my 99 EB Expy and would love to try one of the rosewood/leather combos.
