Do I have the wrong kit or the wrong wheel?
Doing a test fit I don't see how the leather can stretch that much to fit without damaging the cover. This is the kit from Automotion, it is an Alan Gun manufactured kit. Attached thumbnail(s)

I bought the same kit. You have to take off the old leather. I found the thread they provided was too small so I brought some black hemp instead, worked brilliant. PM me if you want some advice. Ah, I just noticed the comment about the foam.

I used the AG kit also, fit fine (no double wrap)  |
