I can get some leather wrapped Vanagon Steering wheels from South Africa or
Projektzwo.  These are really nice steering wheels that are made to fit the
Vanagon specifically.  They are not cheap however.  The SA ones are $295.
Here is a brief description:
Really cool looking padded leather. Makes you feel like
you're driving a Porsche....(well, not quite I guess!). Two
thick spokes angle down in an inverted "V".  Comes with
horn button. Needs no mods to fit. About same diameter
as US power steering wheel 16.75" but is .75" smaller
than US NON PS wheels. (I don't think it really would make
much difference). Comes in Black only.

The Projektzwo ones are $439 and they have two different styles.  One is
390mm diameter and is 3 spoke, the other is 380mm diameter and 4 spoke.
Both are leather wrapped.  I believe they come in black only as well.

I don't have a picture of the SA ones, but I might be able to scan in a
picture of the Pzwo ones if anyone is interested.

No I don't know the btu/hr ratings so don't ask :)

The SA ones I actually have here in the US and so I could ship one pretty
quick.  The Pzwo ones would have to be ordered but would probably be here in
two to three weeks.

Thanks,
Ken Wilford
