WANTED - XJ8/VDP Steering Wheel Part Number HJB9181DB-AEK
Looking for A Wood/Leather steering wheel Part Number HJB9181DB-AEK. No wood cracks or leather issues.
Sable would be the color I believe.
Having trouble finding one this color. Trying to swap it out with my all leather. I don't need the airbag since I already have one.
Thanks

AEK is sable, yes.
If I were you, I'd look for a wheel with pristine veneer and consider having the leather re-trimmed if necessary. I did the same thing, as when I finally found a wheel with matching veneer, the leather was black rather than grey so I had it done at a shop.
The leather looks pretty bad in these two, but if the wood is good, maybe...?

How about this?
St. Louis Auto Steering Wheel Repair | Auto Interior Doctors
This one is apparently also in St. Louis, though the website is a bit hideous.

My wheel getting re-trimmed took about 8 hours and cost about 200USD, but I'd assume it to cost less over there. Fairly quick, considering that a Bentley employee apparently takes twice the time to do one

Thanks for the info. I called the place. Apparently the owner works all around St. Louis. The office is an apartment which seemed odd at first. It seems credible though. He was recommended and known by another auto upholstery shop that has a good reputation. I dropped off a wheel today to get dyed and repaired. Thanks again.
