What do you guys do with the worn out steering wheels on these rigs? Anyone found a good solution? Mine is worn to the point that it's getting loose on the top section.
Navigator wheel is pretty inexpensive if you are patient. There is a place in Texas that will re-cover it for you but it's 250$ and you have to send them your wheel for a week or two. Here is a navigator wheel I bought that I thought was the correct color but I was wrong, intoxicated, or both. I like my new/old tan navigator wheel I ended up with. This is the first one I bought.
Don't get the early 98 model, it looks the same but the wiring is different. Unless you already have a wheel with HVAC and audio controls and you're willing to pull out the controls and swap them. Apoc has a good write up on that method. I upgraded from a cruise only wheel to a navigator wheel with all the buttons. Need to change the clock spring too and make one splice but it's relatively simple. There's a write up somewhere on here by SunlineFan that has some very useful info.
I think they made them in black for the Lincoln Blackwood.

Mine is an 05 limited with all text controls (stereo & heat/fan & cruise)

I want black
Then find a Lincoln Blackwood at the scrap yard, but they only made about three thousand of them so it might be hard. Or try ebay. I don't think it was available in black on any other vehicles.
