Default Wheredid you guys get a steering wheel cover?

My steering wheel is all messed up. The foam is disintegrating.I wanna cover it for now. But all the ones I got so far are too big.

The Insight steering wheel is smaller than most cars.

For those of you that got a steering wheel cover . Where did you get it?

Thanks.

Here's the one I got; looks good, fits perfectly.
Took about 45 minutes to install.... You just
measure the wheel to get the exact size you need.

Nice. Another option is to get an S2000 Leather steering wheel. They come in a couple of diffderent styles. And install is a cinch.

Okay I decided to get the eBay steering wheel cover. I had to measure my steering wheel outside diameter and circumference of the wheel section.

For future reference:
my MY 2000 wheel outer diameter is 14-1/8"
Thickness circumference is 4"

I ordered size SA2

I'll post pix when I install it.

Here is a link:
