Do-it-yourself steering wheel cover restoration kit for BMW X5 E70 and X6 E71 — a professional solution for eliminating scratches, scuffs, and signs of wear without the need for complete steering wheel replacement. Restore the premium appearance and tactile feel of your steering wheel as if it were new with a ready-made set of materials and tools. We do not perform installation — the kit is designed for self-assembly.

Over time, the steering wheel of a BMW X5 E70 or X6 E71 loses its original appearance: scuffs appear in frequently gripped areas, the coating peels, and cracks develop. Many owners believe restoration is only possible by replacing it with a used wheel in good condition or through professional reupholstering, which is often economically unviable. Other temporary solutions, such as touching up scuffs, do not provide lasting results and degrade the tactile experience.
We offer an innovative solution — a ready-to-use steering wheel restoration kit that installs over the old cover. This allows you to:
- Save on auto service costs
- Avoid removing the old material
- Prevent steering wheel removal and associated risks (airbag errors, coding)
- Perform the work at your convenience without being without a car



The kit includes everything needed for a professional result:
- High-quality upholstery material (choice of smooth or perforated)
- 2 spools of strong black thread (for left and right sides)
- 2 special safe needles (one spare)
- Double-sided tape for material fixation
- A spatula for careful installation of material under multifunction steering wheel buttons without removing them
- Detailed step-by-step instructions with photos
Note: All work must be carried out only with the battery terminal disconnected. In some cases, if the button module is installed very tightly, it is recommended to remove the steering wheel and airbag.


Material Choice: Eco Leather vs Genuine Leather
We offer two types of upholstery, tailored to the original BMW specifications:
| Parameter | Eco Leather (Artificial) | Genuine Leather (Bovine/Bull) |
|---|
| Usage in BMW | Standard equipment | Individual and sports equipment (M-Performance) |
| Tactile Feel | Firmer, may feel "plastic" with sweaty palms | Soft, pleasant, breathable, moisture-wicking |
| Durability | Higher, resistant to mechanical damage (rings, bracelets) | Natural, requires careful handling |
| Appearance | Indistinguishable from genuine, available in smooth and perforated versions | Authentic genuine leather texture, perforation |
| Price | More affordable | Premium |
Visually, both materials are identical. The main differences lie in tactile feel and performance characteristics. Genuine leather absorbs moisture better, does not become slippery during long drives, and provides a sense of exclusivity.


Model Range and Compatibility
The kit is specifically designed for BMW X5 E70 and BMW X6 E71. Versions are available for the standard steering wheel and the sporty M-steering wheel (M-Performance). Each kit precisely matches the original steering wheel geometry.
