And yes, taking your time is key.

I probably wouldn't have even got a blister but I was trying to be quick so I could help my wife with our 2 month old. Today I had the house to myself and it was night & day!

I found the grey/black I like online and if I can't buy it locally I'll get some online.

It took about 25ft for the bottom and 42ft for the top section.

But if you want to spend more on custom stitching go here for land rover:
Craft Customs Steering Wheels and Wood Dashes

I used these guys to redo the wheel in my MB a few years ago, they did a great job, but weren't cheap.

I called them and actually got a quote of around $325. They don't have perforated in the tan I believe but they did have it in the black. Odd in my opinion but that was their quote for our steering wheels

Mine was black and that sounds about right for what I paid. I'm liking the paracord idea on here better for my Disco though, she's not nearly as fancy.
